The Hoods to Woods Foundation is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization that promotes awareness of the outdoors to inner city children through Snowboarding.
“When you share what you love like snowboarding with a community that values it, it becomes purpose, not work: opening doors, building confidence, and inspiring the next generation.”
Omar diaz – co founder
in 2009, hoods to woods was created with the idea that everyone should have access to the outdoors. our co-founders Brian paupaw and omar diaz grew up in underserved communities in New York city and understand that sharing their passion for the outdoors can have a positive impact on inner city youth.
“At Hoods to Woods, we transform vision into impact, expanding access, building resilience, and showing youth that the outdoors belongs to them too.”
