Venture Out Secure Generation Pandemic Funding

We are delighted to announce that Venture Out have been successful in securing funding through the Irish Youth Foundations Generation Pandemic Fund to deliver our new Two Wolves programme throughout the next school term.

This exciting outdoor based experiential programme has been designed to support young men explore issues of relevance to them while helping cultivate healthy masculinity within their school and community.

If you are a second level school in the Galway and greater Connaught region and would like to partner with us in delivering this programme with your male students, please get in touch.

We choose the name Two Wolves after an old native American parable….read below

An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life. “A fight is going on inside me,” he said to the boy. “It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil – he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.”

  He continued, “The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on inside you – and inside every other person, too.”

 The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, “Which wolf will win?”

 The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.”
