Vision
“Our vision is that humans’ understanding of the interconnectedness of all lifeforms will help to restore the natural balance of the Earth and be protected in the same way that we protect our own bodies or our children. ”
Robert Gardner, CEO
Mission
“Enso Gaia offers immersive experiences that promote global understanding, environmental awareness and personal growth. We connect people to our natural world who might not otherwise have access, due to various barriers (mental, physical, socioeconomic, or other). Guided experiences in nature aim to foster the understanding that we are all part of the circle of life and need to make critical lifestyle changes.”
Nayla Yared, Development Director
Program Participants
“Anyone who does not have a deep or direct contact with nature in their everyday lives. The programs are offered to all levels of skill and experience. The initial focus is on youth, at-risk, and disadvantaged populations.”
Ashley Long, Program Coordinator
Program Focus
“The business activities of founding donor Charisma Sailing enable Enso Gaia experiential education programming to focus on sailing and other marine activities, such as canoeing, kayaking, and paddle boarding on South Florida's ample waterways and oceans. These programs aim to include elements of mindfulness as well as forms of community service and work projects.”
Clinton Stone, Program Facilitator
