It’s time to get ready for summer.
Our vision is to support future generations of heart-centered, diverse leaders who are prepared to respond to the challenges of their time with focus, resiliency, and compassion for themselves, their communities, and the global environment.
Every summer, hundreds of teens from across the country sign up for our life-changing retreats that open doorways to their individual deep-seated power and purpose. Your support will go to the Teen Scholarships Fund, which has provided $2.1M in tuition assistance since 2017, to make sure every teen is supported to attend retreat this summer.
And thanks to a generous donor, gifts of $250-$2,500 will be matched up to $25,000!

Join our special group of Summer Bound Fundraisers who are helping us meet our goal so that we can confidently maintain our commitment to accessibility and equity.
Teens need our support more than ever.
Confident in their needs and their dreams, Gen Z leaders are showing their elders and each other how to authentically share one’s voice and take action. At the same time, the multitude of crises – a global pandemic, a climate emergency, systemic racism – and the responsibility youth feel to address them have resulted in the highest rates of anxiety, depression, and suicide recorded in history for young people.
Inward Bound programs are a unique opportunity to meet the call of this consequential moment and provide teens with an embodied sense of awareness, well-being, self-confidence, and interconnectedness amidst the chaos.

“Our son has returned to us reflective, mindful, and grounded in ethics and care. He declared that he’s never been somewhere before where he was surrounded by so much love. Thank you for crafting that experience for him and others. We are deeply grateful!”
