When I started using outdoor and experiential education as my primary approach to teaching high school I immediately saw the changes in my students' faces, their body language, and how they navigated and interacted with the world. I could see and sense in their interactions with the world the shift in what we now call 'mindset'. Back in the day, people would ask me how I knew that what I was doing with these teens would be effective, long-lasting, and have an impact. In short, they asked, "What is the evidence?" Back then, my stock response was to say "Ask me in 10 years, then we will know how they are doing and how we did." Here are two personal stories that demonstrate the power of outdoor education to change lives. Last week, I saw a post (linked below) about OBCA staff member Roger Lopez and the critical role he plays as a lead instructor for Outward Bound California. His life journey is inspirational and out on course he is a role model for his students. It is not a coincidence that Roger is an alum of Get Out and Learn (getoutandlearn.org), a high school experiential and outdoor education program in the SFUSD. His experiences in that program offered him the chance to go on Outward Bound, which turned the outdoors into a lifetime career and put him on the pathway toward becoming an outstanding OBCA staff member. Similarly, Belynda Ray is an alum of GOAPe, a predecessor program to GOAL. Her success in that program led her to become an OBCA Pinnacles scholar and a life-changing experience in the wilderness. Today, decades later, Roger and Belynda continue to pay it forward to the next generation. The partnership between OBCA and community organizations give youth like Belynda and Roger the opportunity to go on life-changing experiences with Outward Bound California. None of this is possible without the scholarships OBCA offers. IT IS individual donations that make what seems financially impossible, possible. Yes, it was a previous generation of generous donors like you who changed Roger and Belynda's lives. Tomorrow (May 8th), we rappel to support the next generation of Rogers and Belyndas. Please join us with your financial support. It's worth it. https://lnkd.in/gMVc-mTU Roger's Journey with OBCA https://lnkd.in/gT34Rb9V

As we approach year-end, it’s typical that people start to think about giving back. Whether it’s with your time (if we’re able to find any extra in our busy lives) or your wallet, it’s still an amazing thing to be philanthropic. I’m usually asked how you find the “right” cause to give to, and my answer is always the same: find something that gets you excited. For me, it has always been our service members, both active and retired. This is something that I’m able to share with my children too, and teach them how to be philanthropic. Once you find the one that gets you excited, you’ll never look back, and maybe you’ll be lucky enough to turn that philanthropic endeavor into your families legacy. #philanthropy #legacy #familylegacy #highnetworth #ultrahighnetworth #wealth #wealthplanning

Ade A. is spot on with his perspective in this article. It is a must read.
For Inside Philanthropy, I wrote about the Gregory Gerami saga at Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University where a young Black donor made a $237 million gift to the school--only all was not how it appeared. But while everyone is focusing on the institutional missteps, the whole saga speaks to deeper structural inequities plaguing higher ed giving which I talk about. Here's one passage: [Howard University alum Jerell Blakeley, EdM] noted Mike Bloomberg’s $2 billion in giving to Johns Hopkins through the years, an example of the kind of transformative gifts that can happen in higher education philanthropy, focused on a single institution. “I think that is a sad testament to the historical underfunding and the lack of attraction that HBCUs have received from monied interests in America,” Blakeley said. “Just imagine what FAMU could do with those resources. It would be remarkable.” #philanthropy #HBCU #FAMU #GregoryGerami #Juneneenth #HBCUs #higheredgiving https://lnkd.in/g-fA-jwX
