Events

Periodically throughout the year, Donate-A-Pack has fundraising events. These events help us collect money that we use in purchasing gear that is frequently requested but seldom donated like sleeping bags, pads and tents. So join us at any of these events... as a participant or a volunteer.

Radical Reels
Radical Reels is part of the Banff Mountain Film Festival and is held at the San Diego Natural History Museum.

Banff Mountain Film Festival
This event will be held from Saturday, March 17 through Tuesday, March 20, 2012 at the San Diego Natural History Museum. We will be selling concessions during intermission and possibly before the movies start. (No food or drink allowed in the actual theater.) The event starts at 7pm.

Earth Day   (Click to see 2010 pictures)
Donate A Pack will again be hosting a booth at the San Diego EarthWorks' EarthFair in Balboa Park in 2012. We will announce the date and our probable location as soon as we can.

The 3nd Annual Mt Helix Earth Day Fair will also be held in 2012.

Backpacker's Swap Meet
This annual event will most likely be held in May of 2012. The event usually runs from 8am to Noon in the back parking lot of the San Diego location of Adventure 16 at 4620 Alvarado Canyon Road, San Diego, CA 92120.
The Donate-A-Pack Foundation hosts the event and sells refreshments as well as used gear that isn't suitable for gifting.
