TESTIMONIALS :

Tara Homes, New Delhi. 15 - 30 May 2014. These children were going out of the city for the first time. They spent 2 weeks at the HOB Tons summer camp, rafting, trekking, climbing, rapelling. Learning how to live in the wilderness and respect it. One young person who thought he would not be able to trek due to a game leg, also managed it all as you see in the photographs. It was an amazing high for him. These children came back with 'our eyes opened to so many new things'!

Similarly, when young people leave the comfort of their homes and workplaces to venture into unfamiliar territory, or when they change their usual way of thinking and adapt to new ideas, they are said to be Outward Bound. The programs offered equip its participants to grow through challenges helps them to head out bravely into unknown waters.
