The Impact of Paddleboards on Power To Be’s Programs: A Reflection by Paul

At Power To Be, we are constantly striving to enhance our programs and provide meaningful experiences for our participants. One of the most significant additions to our toolkit has been the paddleboards, generously funded by the Mr. and Mrs. P.A. Woodward’s Foundation.

Power To Be’s Quarterly Impact Report – Q3 2024

Hello! My name is Mike Kucherawy and I’ve been involved with Power To Be for over 15 years. It’s amazing to think back and admire how far Power To Be has come, and how many families have been enriched by this great team over the years. I love how the vision continues to grow over time, to include bigger goals and have a farther reach in terms of connection and support. I became a monthly donor because I know what an important part of our community Power To Be is, and I hope they are still thriving for generations to come.

However, there are significant representation gaps in who shows up to work in the outdoor sector. How do people with different abilities, needs, and backgrounds see themselves in this incredible sector?
