2012 Annual Report - Big City Mountaineers

2012
ANNUAL REPORT
ANNUAL REPORT
The mission of Big City Mountaineers is to instill
critical life skills in under-resourced, urban youth through
transformative wilderness mentoring experiences by working
with community-based partners and volunteer mentors to
deliver programs that focus on character development and
youth success.
The Need:
Under-resourced youth live in communities where as many as
50% of students drop out of high school. Low graduation rates
contribute to:
• Unemployment
• Drug use
• Poor health
• Participation in crime and violence
The Solution:
Big City Mountaineers programs have a proven track record of
developing integrity, responsibility, decision-making abilities,
and communication skills that result in:
• Increased likeliness to stay in school
• Reduction of violence
• Reduction of drug use
• Increased physical activity
2012 Accomplishments:
2,000 under-resourced, urban youth
developed critical life-skills with BCM.
350 adult volunteer mentors
logged more than
37,483 mentoring hours
in the field.
150 Summit for Someone climbers
raised over
$600,000 dollars
for BCM kids.
Wilderness Mentoring
Guiding Youth Who Need It Most
One of the key differentiators between Big City Mountaineers and other
wilderness-based youth programs is that BCM combines the educational
benefits of the outdoor environment with a 1:1 ratio of youth to adult role
models. Unlike programs where a ratio of 10:1 or less is standard, BCM is
deliberate in pairing the under-resourced youth we serve on week-long
expeditions in a 1:1 ratio with caring adult mentors to ensure that our
youth receive the maximum support and reinforcement needed to become
successful.
Each BCM volunteer mentor goes through a rigorous screening and
training process to ensure that they are prepared with the proper tools and
know how to make the greatest impact possible on our young participants.
Year after year, our wilderness mentoring programs prove to effectively
achieve lasting results that mean future success for our kids.
Anthony, Age 17
Partner Agency: East Oakland Boxing Association
Oakland, CA
“My BCM expedition and mentors taught me
that I can challenge myself and work to be
a better person. Without these positive role
models I never would have learned these
lessons. I am excited to take what I’ve learned
here back home.”
Results:
Anthony is completing his Freshman year in
college at the University of California Merced.
Summit for Someone
The BCM Fundraising
Climb Series
Thank you to our 2012 Summit for Someone climbers,
who challenged themselves on 15 epic peaks, raising over
$600K to ensure that under-served, urban youth have the
opportunity to build critical life skills on BCM wilderness
mentoring expeditions.
“Big City Mountaineers does great work with
under-served youth, and I am inspired to help
leverage my experience, relationships and
passion for climbing to benefit kids who need it
most. The Summit for Someone program enables
BCM to change more lives through wilderness
mentoring expeditions that instill critical life
skills.”
Ed Viesturs, BCM Board Member, World Renowned High Altitude Mountaineer

Measuring 2012 Impact
Wilderness Mentoring Works
In 2012, Big City Mountaineers programs positively impacted underresourced, urban youth more than ever before.
BCM youth showed a statistically significant gain in the number of
developmental assets they posess, through their week-long mentoring
expeditions, as measured by the Search Institute’s 40 Developmental Assets
Profile.
Developmental assets protect youth from engaging in high-risk behaviors,
including violence, alcohol use, and illicit drug use. Developmental assets
also promote thriving behaviors. such as valuing diversity, maintaining good
health, and succeeding in school.
BCM youth see significant
improvement in these key areas:
• Commitment to Learning
Motivation to do well in school, homework performance,
and reading for pleasure.
• Positive Values
Caring for others, promoting equality, demonstrating
honesty and integrity, and behaving responsibly.
• Social Competencies
Planning and making good decisions, resisting peer
pressure, seeking to resolve conflict non-violently.
• Positive Identity
Feeling in control with high self-esteem and having
optimism abut the future.
Partnerships
Creating Impact Together
Big City Mountaineers partners with community-based youth development
agencies to identify under-resourced youth that would benefit from the BCM
experience, and recruits young participants directly from these agencies. We
have chosen this partnership model to maximize ongoing youth impact,
and work alongside agency staff to reach out, recruit, and properly prepare
youth for this catalyst experience. Agency partners are selected based on the
profile of the youth served, their relationship with the youth, measurement
methodologies, geographical location, and ability to participate in Big City
Mountaineers training and programs. Each BCM expedition includes one
staff member from the partnering youth agency to ensure that expedition
learning is continued and reinforced when youth return home to their
communities.
“Our incredibly brave refugee teenage girls from Nepal and the
Ivory Coast had an amazing experience with BCM. These girls made
tremendous gains in self-confidence, love of the outdoors and ability to effectively problem solve.”
Sharon Lafer, Agency Leader
African Community Center Denver, CO 2012
In addition to youth agencies, collaborative partnership is the lens by
which we view all our working relationships. Strong partnerships with
outdoor industry companies have been essential to supplying muchneeded gear, funding, and promotional support for our youth expeditions
and Summit for Someone fundraising climb series.
Through the geneosity of our outdoor industry partners, BCM
received more than $600,000 of in-kind support in 2012. Thank you!
Working With
Youth Who Need It Most
Big City Mountaineers works exclusively with under-resourced, racially
diverse youth, mostly between the ages of 13 and 18, who often have no
experience outside their local neighborhood. The BCM expedition is
often their first experience with the wilderness.

Mireya, Age 16
A Story of Success
Each year, we witness
transformational growth in our
kids as their journeys unfold.
This year, Mireya’s powerful
story inspired our work.
“BCM helped me understand that failures
inspire great courage. Courage is hard to own,
difficult to acquire, but necessary to succeed.
If I had not gone on a BCM trip, many of my
fears would have trapped me in a box. These
lessons have helped me with AP classes. I now
challenge myself in and outside of school.”
Results: Mireya is now President of her high
school college-readiness program and is eager
to enroll in college next year.
Our Vision
Serve More Kids In Need
Big City Mountaineers’ vision is to transform the lives of thousands of
urban youth each year through wilderness mentoring experiences
that instill critical life skills. Inspired by what they have accomplished
with BCM, our youth choose a brighter future – a future that embraces
education, purpose, and self-worth while rejecting delinquency, violence
and drugs.
Big City Mountaineers is the nation’s leading wilderness mentoring
organization for under-resourced urban youth. Our proven curriculum is
delivered collaboratively with a vibrant network of urban communities,
youth-based agencies, volunteer mentors and supporters, all working in
effective partnership. Together we create impact, unified in our singular,
extraordinary commitment to serve more kids in need.
BCM Plans for Growth

1.3 million kids a year drop out of school by expanding our programs to
reach the kids who need us. In the next few years we will increase the
number of:

With strong board leadership and commitment to this vision, we look forward
to changing the lives of thousands of under-served youth for years to come.
