Power To Be
Everyone Belongs in Nature
Power To Be is a non-profit organization that creates access to nature for youth, families, and adults living with cognitive, physical, financial, and social barriers.
We design, adapt, and deliver community recreation programs. Empowering people to overcome a variety of barriers to nature and adventure.
We host events to raise funds and awareness of our programs. Bringing the community together through philanthropy and fun.
Power To Be began in 1998 with an idea: help people living with a disability or barrier access nature. The idea grew into a community, connecting participants to adventures and supporters to opportunities, collectively redefining our definition of ability.
Based in Victoria and Vancouver, we are a non-profit organization that believes everyone belongs in nature. We believe finances shouldn’t prevent anyone from accessing nature, and we work to remove cognitive, physical and social barriers to the outdoors, supporting participants to explore who they are and what they are capable of with the support of our staff, volunteers and each other.
