We are Proud to say…
that we've helped over 500 youths here in the borderland since 2009.
Even though it’s only the kids who go on these trips, it’s their families that learn how anyone can be braver and stronger than they could ever imagine they could become. Help us Celebrate, Educate, and Empower.
WHO WE ARE…
Mike Dee’s Big Adventure is a non-profit organization whose mission is simple: To enable, empower, and support youth with disabilities. We believe that there is no greater calling than to inspire a child to become more than what they ever thought possible.

WHY WE DO IT…
Pioneer Mike Dee started out as a healthy child. In high school, Mike slowly started losing his vision. Becoming legally blind, instead of living as 'Disabled,' he chose to empower himself and achieved his life goals. His dream was to one day, enable special needs youth with the power to strengthen what they already know they have inside. Mike Dee’s Big Adventure was born.

Meet Our Board!
Mike Dee’s Big Adventure is now in its 11th year. Every single trip marks incredible transformations in the lives of these young people. Each year, youth with a wide spectrum of disabilities become boldly enabled through compassion, fun, and an experience they truly never believed they could do on their own.
These are The Pioneers behind those experiences and The Future Adventures to come.
