River Rendezvous - Saturday, October 4 - featuring Colorado's own, Big Head Todd & the Monsters at the Gothic Theater
The mission of cityWILD is to provide low income and culturally diverse youth with outdoor and environmental learning opportunities, while promoting personal empowerment, leadership and community involvement.
cityWILD motivates participants to reach their potential at school, at home and in their communities - and they succeed.
cityWILD opens the world of tuition-free experiential education to Denver area youth in need of additional support and outreach. In support of these goals, cityWILD operates three distinct programs: the Leadership Program, Support Services, and cityWILD Ventures.
At cityWILD we believe in the power of the positive and in the resilience of human beings. To support and nurture our students, we set high expectations, promote caring relationships, and create opportunities for meaningful participation. cityWILD provides a safe setting in which students can excel as thinking, capable young adults.
In 2005 cityWILD was awarded funding for two years from the Denver Foundation to participate in their Expanding Nonprofit Inclusiveness Initiative (ENII.) The purpose of this initiative is for nonprofits to become more inclusive of diverse communities in every aspect of their organization. Although this funding is limited to two years, cityWILD is fully committed to continuing this work on an ongoing basis.
