Welcome

Welcome to the Big Hearts under the Big Sky a charitable partnership program that provides military service men and women, children who face the challenge of a life threatening illness, and women who suffer the demon of breast cancer the opportunity to enjoy Montana outdoors at no cost.  

Big Hearts under the Big Sky is the “giving back” extension of the Montana Outfitters and Guides Association (MOGA). Big Hearts primary objective is coordinate fully outfitted and guided trips to meet the dreams and needs of carefully screened, qualified participants.

“The Big Hearts under the Big Sky model is unprecedented as an umbrella program to consolidate, underwrite and focus outfitter efforts to support charitable programs.  It is a unique approach in which outfitters have the assurance they are dealing with reputable, sanctioned charities, and the charities have the luxury of “one-stop-shopping” for outdoor experience providers in Montana.”

The benefits of the Big Hearts program extend far beyond the hunt or catch; spirits are healed, capabilities and confidence expand, a sense of purpose is rediscovered, and families are restored.

We invite you to tour the site, learn about the program and read the stories about how exceptional people find healing and recovery while in the outdoors as part of Montana’s Big Hearts under the Big Sky.
