Dear Mentors,

DEEP was founded to make wilderness education experiences accessible to youth who might not be able to participate due to limited financial means. In distributing scholarships we are seeking applicants who have demonstrated leadership ability or commitment to their community, and who will be likely to use their experiences to enrich their lives and work. We appreciate your honest assessment of the young person who has asked for your recommendation.

(Recommendations can be sent in letter format to either our US or Canadian office if you prefer not to use the online form.)
