JOIN US AS WE BUILD A FOREST SCHOOL IN THE HEART OF Central and EASTERN KENTUCKY in THE FOOTHILLS OF THE APPALACHIANS!
Here what our students and members have to say…
Since the beginning, we have believed that nature is for everyone, regardless of their ability to pay. We have committed to reserving seats in every single class and program for financial aid and scholarship students, while still ensuring that our class prices are some of the most affordable in the country for nature programming. Additionally, we recognize that cost isn’t the only barrier to entry, often coming up with creative solutions to get those with the most need out into nature. This can include helping with transportation via carpooling and ridesharing, maintaining a lending library of outdoor weather gear, and other supports for our families—some of whom find Red Oaks as their first exposure to the great outdoors. This is made possible through the support of generous donors like you, countless volunteer hours, and our never ending efforts at fundraising and grant development. Your donation allows us to maintain our commitments to our scholarship families, ensuring their continued participation in our programming as long as they are in need.
Red Oaks Center for Nature and the Arts, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization and contributions are tax-deductible for income, gift, and estate taxes. Our EIN is 82-2119872.

Help us bring our programming to kids in need.
