Medicines Global announced an unspecified December 2013 contribution from The North Face. The contribution will help support three 2014 spring programs: Learn to Surf Day, Learn to Kayak Day, and Learn to Stand Up Paddle Day offered by MGOYA.

The mission at Medicines Global with the Outdoor Youth Ambassador programs is in direct alignment with the goals and mission for The North Face (TNF) youth Explore Fund goals.

“I am pleased to announce a December 2013 contribution that will help provide three wilderness experiences in 2014 for Medicines Global Outdoor Youth Ambassadors. This contribution honors the innovative programs getting youth moving and into the wilderness in collaboration with the LA Unified School District and the Los Angeles Police Department. MGOYA programs were among the first recipients of The North Face Explore Fund grants in 2010 making possible four National Park field trips to Joshua Tree, Sequoia and Channel Islands National Parks,” said Ann Krcik,  director, brand communications & Outdoor Exploration, The North Face.
