Miles Turner was a loving member of our HIOBS community and a leader in the outdoor education industry. He enjoyed long expeditions in the outdoors, teaching and the rivers in Futaleufú. The charity Futaleufú Riverkeepers has protected the waters where Miles paddled many times.

Futaleufú River Keeper is an NGO based in Chile whose mission is “to contribute to the free flow of Patagonia's rivers and inspire conservation awareness, foster harmonious coexistence among all beings that inhabit the Futaleufú basin, and become a support organization for strengthening communities and individuals.”

Among their projects is water quality testing, river bank monitoring, and education initiatives. Their program Chicas Al Agua teaches local girls to kayak while developing leadership skills, teamwork, self-esteem, and active participation in the conservation of free and wild rivers. https://futaleufuriverkeeper.org/
