Mochila-Mochila: Gear to Get Afuera
“Mochila-Mochila: Gear to Get Afuera” is a project that gives Latinas in Canada access to high-quality gear to experience the outdoors. Sharing is caring, and gear is meant to be used. Mochila-Mochila works as a gear lending library, helping ensure that a lack of gear is no longer a barrier to outdoor adventures.

How the project works
How does Mochila-Mochila work? Are you a Latina in Canada? Do you need outdoor gear for your next adventure but do not have it? Check our inventory, request your gear, pick it up, ENJOY IT, clean it, and bring it back. REPEAT!
Project Impact
In its first year, Mochila Mochila aims to support at least 50 Latinas in accessing outdoor adventures, with the gear library continuing to serve new participants for years to come.
Project Mission
Mochila Mochila aims to make the outdoors more accessible to Latinas in Canada by removing the cost of gear as a barrier to participation. By sharing equipment, we hope to enable more Latinas to explore the outdoors, try new activities, build community, and discover that adventure belongs to all of us.
