Making Big Outdoor Dreams Come True!
Welcome to The Outdoor Adventure Foundation
The Outdoor Adventure Foundation offers hunting and fishing adventures to young people suffering from major, life-threatening illnesses and disabilities, as well as injured veterans—educating them and nurturing their interest in the outdoors through the healing power of nature. The trips provide a welcome break from their adversity and include once-in-a-life-time big game hunts, upland and waterfowl hunting trips, fishing trips, and sporting events, creating memories of a lifetime.
Legendary NFL football coach Bud Grant is no longer with us, but his words about the Outdoor Adventure Foundation can still be heard in this video.
