About us
Sharing a Dream Beyond Limits
For 18 years, the executive director has dedicated her time to creating unforgettable memories through trips and expeditions with youth—children who weren’t her own but felt like family. Driven by a passion for growth and connection, she embraced the philosophy of "each one, teach one," believing that the best part of life lies in the power of the mind to inspire and uplift others. Today, she’s ready to step beyond her own limits, reaching even more individuals and sharing her dream with the world. Her journey is a testament to how a single vision, rooted in teaching and learning, can spark change and build a legacy far beyond what one imagines. It’s not just about exploring the world but empowering minds to embrace its endless possibilities.
CARRINGTON EXPEDITION YOUTH FOUNDATION started with a passion for empowering youth through exploring experiences. As a personal organization based in Jacksonville, Florida, we're committed to providing free trips and expeditions that inspire, educate, and build character in young individuals.
