Discover Term Foundation

Our team is thrilled to announce the start of The Discover Term Foundation, which will provide scholarships to families who are inspired by our mission, deeply want their child to experience one of our adventures, but don’t have the full financial resources to send their child to one of our programs.

Our dream is to create epic adventures for 6-9th graders where they can discover their potential and gain a lifelong love for adventure and the outdoors, irrespective of their family's financial means.

We believe that greatness lies within every human being. We empower teens at critical growth stages to awaken their senses, activate their untapped potential, and ignite their passion for life, learning and adventure. Our aim is to serve as many qualified students and families with this mission as we can, and we believe that The Discover Term Foundation will play a vital role in helping us do just that.

The Discover Term Foundation will help to fill the gap between the Discover Term tuition of $12,500 and what a family applying for a scholarship is able to afford.

Families who are in need of financial support from The Discover Term Foundation will complete a supplemental scholarship application. The scholarship amount that families receive may vary greatly depending upon their need.

If you think your child is ready for an epic adventure, go ahead and apply for an upcoming term.

If you know families who would love our adventures and may need some amount of scholarship to attend, please encourage them to submit a supplemental scholarship application.

Thank you for supporting our mission, helping us spread the word about what we do, and for pursuing adventure and learning in your own life.

20 teens.
Zero smartphones.
One life-changing adventure.

Powder Term and Surf Term are fully immersive, non-traditional learning experience that empowers 6th-9th graders to stretch their limits in every way imaginable. For five weeks, students trade mind-numbing lectures for accelerated academics, smartphones for expert ski or surf instruction, and everyday pressures for unforgettable adventures in the mountains of southwest Colorado or the rainforests and warm Pacific waters of Costa Rica .
