The name Outward Bound derives from a nautical expression that refers to the moment a ship leaves the 
pier. This is signified by Outward Bound's use of the 
nautical flag.
The Outward Bound motto is "To Serve, To Strive and
not To Yield".
It helps people discover and develop their potential to
care for themselves, others, and the world around
them through challenging experiences in unfamiliar
settings.
