In the spring newsletter I spoke of the unmatched potential that I believe The Nature Connection has. We are uniquely positioned to replace isolation, loneliness and stress with connection, community, and wonder through the lens of our natural world. Especially for those with extra barriers to nature access.

“Our epidemic of loneliness and isolation has been an underappreciated public health crisis that has harmed individual and societal health. Our relationships are a source of healing and well-being hiding in plain sight – one that can help us live healthier, more fulfilled, and more productive lives,”

~ U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy, 2023

The Nature Connection currently provides 57 programs a month, with all program partners reporting effectiveness at increasing social connection and community development for participants.

Support from donors like you is what will sustain The Nature Connection and let us capitalize on this potential. The Nature Connection is ready to become a more robust and multifaceted organization that creates and holds the space for connections to and through nature in many different capacities for all.

Short-term goals: Expand our outreach and services provided to reach more community members in need and grow The Nature Connection’s revenue
Mid-term goals: Secure grants to make strategic improvements and develop services such as updating our website, a business plan for group therapy, and volunteer resources
Long-term goals: Purchase a facility with gardens and animals, to support our current traveling programs and expanding The Nature Connection's capacity as a community resource and service provider

Every dollar you are able to give is needed to close our final $50,000 financial gap as we come to the end of the fiscal year. Will you help us start our next fiscal year strong on August 1st by making a donation to The Nature Connection today?

With Thanks & Gratitude,
