Giving Every Child Knowledge of the Outdoors (GECKO). The premise sounds simple enough. Yet study after study shows that our children aren't getting enough outdoor play. And this trend isn't improving. The latest information shows that less than 25% of children are active outdoors more than twice per week. Does this worry you? It definitely worries us.

Through donations and events, GECKO is raising money to help children from all walks of life experience outdoor programming through scholarships to the nation's leading outdoor education providers. Our goal is simple: To give EVERY child knowledge of the outdoors.
