YOLF has received financial support from a number of leading companies in the outdoor industry including Recreational Equipment, Incorporated (REI), VF Corporation, parent company of The North Face and JanSport, and Columbia Sportswear Company.
"As more companies join us in our work, the number of kids we will get outdoors will multiply, and the impact we will have will be our legacy," Madsen said. We would like to thank the following supporters for their gifts in 2005.
