Research shows that nature profoundly impacts our mind, body, and spirit, which is why Cincinnati Nature Center is so dedicated to providing inspiring experiences and unforgettable moments in nature.

But not everyone has access to the beauty and benefits of nature. Many families face significant obstacles to experiencing the outdoors. Whether it’s financial hardship, lack of transportation, or physical limitations, these challenges can prevent people from experiencing nature’s magic.

That’s why we created Nature for All. This initiative is dedicated to ensuring that everyone—regardless of resources or ability—can experience the joy, peace, and healing touch of nature.

You can help bridge the gaps and help those who need it most. You can support these vital programs:

• Field Trip Scholarships

• Experiential Outreach Programs

• Summer Camp Scholarships

• Accessibility Improvements

• Mental and Physical Well-being Initiatives

• School Pollinator Gardens

• Discounted Membership and Admission

• Teacher Workshops

9,352 people benefited from low or no cost experiences through Nature for All in 2024.

With your support, you can also help strengthen our partnerships with social service agencies and non-profits that are essential to the success of Nature for All.

Some of the incredible organizations we work with include:
