To make this innovative program widely accessible, we seek assistance in providing students with financial aid. We aim to provide all students with bursaries of $1000 to $6000 each.
To cover the cost of guest speakers, field trips, special venues, wilderness expeditions, group gear, as well as food and travel for six weeks, the cost of the program is $6750 per student, of which students make a minimum contribution of $750.
Your generosity can make this unique program available to those who otherwise might not be able to participate. Contact us to help committed young people become leaders in ecological sustainability and social equity through the Redfish School of Change!
