supporting rites of passage

In 2022, your donations brought in over $23,000! This year, we have a $55,000 financial need.

Will you help?

By initiating leaders, honoring youth and elders, facilitating healing and reflection, and rekindling people's relationship with nature and spirit, Cascadia Quest is playing an important role in reweaving the broken fabric of interconnection.

Can you give this season to ensure that people have access to a place to grieve, a place to be seen, a place to grow? Are you willing to help create a culture in which we look to Nature as a friend, counselor, and wisdom-keeper? Will you help us financially so that we can continue the work of community-building, of making space to be authentic, so that people out there know they are not alone?

It is our hope that you will join us in deepening together as we share our hearts in council, learn how to be mentors to our youth, and listen for the wisdom of our dear earth.

Your gift this season makes this great endeavor possible. Thank you!

Cascadia Quest is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that provides wilderness rites of passage as well as other nature-immersed, personal growth and educational experiences. We envision multi-generational communities of empowered, initiated individuals living a sustainable, regenerative culture in the Willamette Valley and Cascadia Bioregion. We foster this through our many programs, send-off and welcome home ceremonies, mentorship, ongoing circles (elders, mentors, gender specific councils, etc.), and our evolving model of community supported rites of passage. We place high value on the sacredness of Nature, involvement of Community, recognition of Spirit, and engagement of all generations, particularly youth and elders.
