Wild Gift - Leaders United for a Better World

Summary

Support leadership action projects driven by better world entrepreneurs.

What is the issue, problem, or challenge?

Wild Gift was founded on the belief that exceptional young men and women, who love nature and express their own unique nature, are needed as leaders. These are individuals who follow their own transforming ideas and ideals rather than conform to the status quo. These are individuals who are grounded in an appreciation of their own individuality, their link to the natural world, and the interdependence of all life.
