What is Nature For All?
Nature For All is an organization that pairs high school students with youth with disabilities to share outdoor experiences.
Nature for All's first event was an organized trail walk for Global Youth Service Day, which brought student volunteers together with visually impaired youth to walk on the Whispering Woods Braille Trail and celebrate Earth Day. A highlight of the event was when the student volunteers and the visually impaired youth worked together to plant aromatic herb gardens for the visually impaired youth to take home.

Nature For All will be holding a similar Braille nature trail walk this year on Sunday, April 17th at the Whispering Woods Braille Trail.
This year for Global Youth Service Day, youth are encouraged to take part in projects that work toward the United Nation’s new Global Goals for Sustainable Development, an initiative to solve several of the world’s most pressing issues by the year 2030. There are 17 Global Goals, and Nature For All supports Goal 10 (Reduced Inequalities) and Goal 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities).
