Outdoors Alliance for Kids (OAK)

OAK is a national strategic partnership of organizations from diverse sectors with a common interest in connecting children, youth, and families with the outdoors. OAK believes that all children and youth should have the opportunity and encouragement to play outside, touch soil, feel rain, watch leaves fall, sleep under the stars, count waves, eat food fresh from the garden, roll down a hill, catch a fish, and enjoy the satisfaction of climbing to the top of a hill or a tree. Such simple acts create a pathway to an appreciation for nature and wildlife, an active and healthy outdoor lifestyle, and a sustained relationship with the natural world.

OAK’s members are brought together by the belief that the well-being of current and future generations, the health of our planet and communities, and the economy of the future depend on humans having a personal, direct, and lifelong relationship with nature and the outdoors. OAK brings together more than 100 businesses and nonprofit organizations to connect kids directly with nature, empower youth leadership, and educate decision-makers and influence administrative policies at all levels to ensure children and youth have opportunities to get outdoors.

The Sierra Club Foundation is the 501(c)(3) fiscal sponsor for OAK.
