At Outward Bound California, we strongly believe all people should have equitable access to safe, outdoor experiences. OBCA raises funds in an effort to continue to break down barriers for people of color and other non-dominant identities from economically vulnerable communities to accessing safe and impactful experiences in their backyard and beyond.
Through your gift, you will allow Outward Bound California to provide these priceless experiences of personal growth to underserved youth. Your contribution will bring adventure and challenge to young people, and in turn, they will discover that they are capable of more than they ever thought possible.
Gifts of cryptocurrency may reduce your tax exposure, by reducing capital gains tax on the appreciated amount.
