Story

On Monday 6th May 2024 a fearless few will make a rope descent of the worlds most famous skyscraper a challenge that has never been attempted before and may never be attempted again.

This is the Big Rappel at The Empire State Building.

A proud collaboration between Outward Bound and Empire State Realty Trust.

The goal is simple: to raise transformational funds in support of the Outward Bound movement around the globe, reminding the world what can be achieved when determined people come together.

Our mission is to unlock potential in young people through learning and experience in the outdoors. In today's world, this is more relevant than ever.

This history making endeavor will inspire the next generation to reach beyond their comfort zones and achieve more than they ever thought possible.

Through Outward Bound young people worldwide experience challenge and support, adventure, and discovery enabling them to become strong, resilient, and curious, ready for the challenges of life.

Please give generously to this incredible event to help young people thrive in life.

Thank you so much.
