@BlackPeopleHikeLV was founded in 2021 by current Nevada State University student Donovan Childress (@donchils22). While in high school, Donovan created the organization to challenge the misconception that hiking and outdoor activities are exclusive to white people. "I noticed a lack of ...representation, which fueled my determination to continue and share the experience with others."
What began with just a few friends has grown into a thriving community, hosting events like kayaking, skiing, yoga, and hikes, all aimed at connecting people to nature. "The most rewarding aspect has been witnessing how far the organization has come. When I started, it was just me and two other high school students, but today, BlackPeopleHikeLV has been featured on Vegas PBS (@vegaspbs) and Fox 5 (@fox5vegas) and has grown exponentially. It’s also been an honor to have local Black leaders, such as the President of the NAACPLV (@naacp_lv) Chapter and Rep. Horsford, join us, further solidifying the sense of community we’ve built."
The organization also focuses on empowering youth, with field trips and educational events like a beekeeping workshop with Black Girls Hike (@blackgirlshike_).
BlackPeopleHikeLV is about more than just hiking – it’s about fostering a sense of belonging in the outdoors and inspiring future generations.
