Giving Back
At Morsel Munk, our mission is to motivate people of all ages to exercise their minds and bodies, and be young at heart. Sure, we sell products in line with our mission. Our business, however, extends far beyond the products we sell. Giving back is of the utmost importance to us. We support what we consider to be some outstanding organizations. We couldn't do it without you!
Supporting Outdoor Nation. Are You An Outsider?
The Outdoor Foundation
Morsel Munk is a Coalition Partner of Outdoor Nation
Morsel Munk provided a $1,500 scholarship to The Outdoor Nation Youth Summit in Central Park, June 19-20, 2010. Yes, that's THE Central Park in New York City. Our Delegate was Claudia, an Environmental Engineering student at the University of Connecticut. The event was a huge success, gathering 500 of America's top young leaders - from Alaska to Puerto Rico, Mississippi to New Hampshire. The delegates were led by peer youth Ambassadors in brainstorming ways to reconnect youth with the great outdoors, be environmental stewards, and so much more.
Outdoor Nation Youth Summit Highlights:
- Selected from more than 1,000 applications, 500 of America's top young leaders joined together for a first-ever National Outdoor Youth Summit.
- Outdoor Nation Delegates outlined top youth-led ideas, priorities and solutions while the Outdoor Nation Ambassadors developed an Outdoor Nation Declaration.
- The Youth Summit was an official "America's Great Outdoors" listening session - drawing top Obama administration officials from the Department of Interior, Department of Agriculture, Department of Labor and Center for Environmental Quality.
- Grant and intern opportunities were announced by The North Face, SNEWS and Camelbak.
Though the 2010 Summit and Festival is over, the work is just beginning. It's never too late to become an Outsider. Learn more at Outdoor Nation.
