Challenging Youth to Improve
Their World
Trips for Kids Detroit is dedicated people using outdoor
adventures
to build character, self-esteem, teamwork and environmental
awareness
in Michigan's urban Youth.
We have a big year of fundraising planned. Because we're doing more, we need your help more than ever to get it done! Click here to help us reach our goals for 2005.
Based on the Trip for Kids Model Program in Marin County, California, Trips for Kids bike programs have helped inner city and low income kids across the United States and Canada by offering mountain bike outings and environmental education. The goal of our youth bike programs is to combine lessons in personal responsibility, achievement and environmental awareness through the development of practical skills and the simple act of having fun.
