INSPIRING A COMMUNITY OF WOMEN-LED ADVENTURE
When we first started #SheAdventures, it was a call to shine a worldwide spotlight on women’s equality in the outdoor apparel industry. Quite a lot has changed since then, and now there’s even more to talk about. #SheAdventures has been and will always be about empowering underrepresented genders, regardless of your identity. More importantly, #SheAdventures belongs to you – you are the ones who are dreaming big, overcoming challenges, living an adventurous life, and inspiring us to do the same.
Our #SheAdventures scholarship program helps to give cis and trans women the education, technical skills, and confidence to achieve big things. Could you be our next scholar?
#SHEADVENTURES ON INSTAGRAM
Since launching in 2015, we’ve enjoyed nearly 450,000 moments of grit, joy, type II fun, dedication, passion, and adventure in the wild places that make us come alive. Celebrate with us by tagging your posts with #SheAdventures on Instagram. We choose a new winner every month to applaud the hard-charging moms, sisters, daughters, partners, and friends who inspire us to do more outdoors.
