Inspire: An Evening of Connection and Impact Between People and Nature

Join us for Inspire, our annual fundraiser celebrating the transformative power of nature connection and the community that makes it all possible. This special evening brings together friends, supporters, and changemakers for a night of inspiration, reflection, and impact.

Enjoy a delicious dinner catered by Chef Saba Wahid Duffy who is an award-winning chef, and leader in sustainable cooking, accompanied by live music, and a special live owl program with Eyes on Owls.

Throughout the evening, hear firsthand from community impact speakers—participants, volunteers, and partners—whose stories bring to life the deep and lasting difference your support makes. This year we will be launching our brand new marketing video featuring footage and interviews of our programs in action.

Our robust silent auction is available online and in person, featuring unique experiences, handcrafted items, and local treasures, all supporting our mission to bring the healing power of nature to those who need it most.

Whether you're a long-time supporter or a new friend, Inspire is an invitation to connect, celebrate, and support our programs to help us grow our impact in the year ahead. Join us in Supporting the Human Spirit through Nature.
