Recognizing 2024’s Trailblazers

The Beyond Boundaries Trailblazers are the dedicated partners and volunteers who have gone above and beyond to support our mission. Their time, energy, and resources have been instrumental in shaping the success of our programs, and we couldn’t do it without them. While we appreciate every person who contributes to our cause, we’d like to take a moment to recognize those who truly made a difference in 2024.

Our Paddle Awards serve as a small token of our immense gratitude, honoring exceptional partners with a physical reminder of the impact they've had on our work.

“I want people to see the paddles and remember how much we appreciate their support and shared passion for the Beyond Boundaries mission,” says Shep.
