GOALS Youth River Expeditions, Colorado

Alexus KelleyERO Foundation

The ERO Charitable Foundation proudly supported GOALS Youth River Expeditions, a non-profit dedicated to creating exciting development opportunities for kids to connect with nature via river rafting expeditions. GOALS also has a special emphasis on diversifying their community through their Financial Assistance Program, which helps to significantly reduce or entirely eliminate the out-of-pocket cost to eligible families of underserved youth. The Foundations contribution to GOALS directly supported three refugee teenagers from Afghanistan and Burundi, who participated in an 8-day expedition through Lodore Canyon in July 2024. By expanding access to opportunities which foster self-reliance and self-discovery in underserved youth, the grant supports the Foundation’s mission to provide humanitarian services to communities in need.Â
