Hunts, Fishing Trips, Events, Volunteers, and Sponsors

Every opportunity helps create meaningful outdoor experiences and supports the mission of Uplifting Outdoors. We work closely with the Pennsylvania Game Commission and Big Snorter Lodge on our hunting adventures.

Life-changing hunting experiences for children with life-altering illnesses/disabilities and wounded veterans

We offer personalized hunting trips for children with life altering illnesses or disabilities and wounded veterans. These hunts are completely free of charge for the hunter and guest/s. The hunter fills out our application on our website and then we try to find a best fit. Our hunts are limited in number each year but we do the best we can to fit the hunter with their chosen type of hunt.

Fishing experiences for children with life-altering illnesses/disabilities and wounded veterans

We have access to fishing trips on Lake Erie and the Gulf of America to send children (up to 21 years of age) on their dream walleye or gulf experience. These trips are completely paid for by our generous donors and community support.

We have several events throughout the year that we participate in for fundraising. We attend the Central PA Outdoor and Sports Show, the Sinnemahoning Snake Hunt, Philipsburg Heritage Days, and the Elk Expo in Benezette. We also hold a Fishing Derby in May and a Trap Shoot in September.
