The Overland Expo Foundation is proud to announce the awarding of a $5,500 grant to the First Due Overland for their 2026 Stewardship & Responsible Recreation Initiative.

Sweep Up the Southeast 2025 united overland volunteers across eight states to remove more than 60,000 pounds of trash, clear 200+ miles of forest roads, and protect public lands through large-scale stewardship and responsible recreation.

Each year, Explore More SoCal introduces hundreds of high school and higher-education students to some of Southern California’s most iconic trails. What begins as a single day of hiking often sparks a deeper connection to overlanding, exploration, and stewardship. Education is the catalyst—opening the door to lifelong adventure and meaningful change.

Through two immersive desert expeditions, Fox Bravo Overland helped veterans and first responders rebuild confidence, connection, and purpose—proving that adventure can be a powerful path to healing.

For the third time, a dedicated crew went up Tank Hollow Road—and thanks to a smart rigging plan funded by the Overland Expo Foundation, they hauled out 29 tires, a fridge, a freezer, and more.

With support from the Overland Expo Foundation, the Motorcycle Relief Project provided a transformative five-day adventure ride for veterans—helping participants reconnect, heal, and rebuild confidence through community and time on the trail.
