Over the past few years, I have had the privilege of leading the TrentonTrekkers program. Hundreds of students have participated in hiking, canoeing, climbing, fishing, skiing, ice skating, and other outdoor activities. We have used these opportunities to teach the students about science, history, culture, and leadership just to name a few. I am raising money for the TrentonTrekkers program so we can continue offering these unique opportunities and expand the program to include new students, places, and activities.  

UrbanPromise Trenton will be joining UrbanPromise organizations from Camden and Millville for the 2024 Paddle for Promise. The organizations will use 10-person voyager canoes to paddle around Petty's Island in the Delaware River on September 28, 2024. Each of the 10 paddlers from UrbanPromise Trenton will be raising support from their friends and family to support the TrentonTrekkers program.

UPT believes in outdoor time which is why we started an UrbanTrekkers program in Trenton. We believe that through the TrentonTrekkers program, we have a unique opportunity to offer youth from Trenton a different perspective on the world around them. Through travel to places beyond students’ everyday lives and a focus on cross-cultural experiences, historical perspectives, environmental awareness, and community service, students are motivated to learn from their TrentonTrekker journeys and carry that motivation into their studies.
