About Big City Mountaineers:
The mission of Big City Mountaineers (BCM), a 501(c)(3) non-profit, is to provide urban teenage youth in need of positive adult mentoring with a challenging and safe wilderness experiences led by qualified adult volunteer guides.
BCM combines many of the elements of a mentoring program with an outdoor wilderness expedition designed specifically for under-resourced urban youth. A BCM experience combines the innate teaching ability of the natural world, with caring adults, to provide a potentially life-changing experience for teens that may not otherwise have had access to either. Perhaps more than anything, BCM trips provide teens with opportunities to achieve success by drawing on resources they might never have known they had.
