Mission
To support environmental-based nonprofits and nonprofits working to promote diversity and inclusion in the outdoors through PR, digital marketing, and branding services that assist with fundraising efforts and increase awareness.
Vision
The outdoors fuel our passions physically, mentally, and professionally. From breathtaking National Parks to our favorite local watering hole, the beautiful landscapes of our nation enrich our lives in so many ways. What we do would not be possible without the endless effort of organizations that fight to protect and preserve public lands, keeping them pristine and in their natural state for us and future generations to enjoy.
We also believe wholeheartedly the outdoors should be accessible to everyone, and the efforts of nonprofits working to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in the outdoors are very important. We are committed to supporting organizations that are moving the needle when it comes to diversifying the outdoors and making it a more inclusive environment for all.
Action
The application process will open in mid-October for the 2021 Stand Up Initiative! In 2021, we will be offering a robust and expansive pro bono package of 100 hours each to two nonprofits. We are proud to announce we will be expanding the Stand Up Initiative in 2021 to include nonprofits working to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in the outdoors, in addition to nonprofits that are fighting to protect and preserve our public lands.
Deadline for applications is November 27, 2020. You can APPLY HERE starting on October 15, 2020.

Not only did they provide expert support during the time of our grant, they were able to provide lasting suggestions and fostered important relationships that will benefit our organization in the months and years to come. Thank you Darby Communications for being a public lands champion!
