OSBORNE ADVENTURE
OSBORNE ADVENTURE
A Diagnosis Isn’t the Destination
One family. Three kids. 37,000 nautical miles to show that a diagnosis does not define a life.
Our expedition includes three world record attempts, a passage from Antarctica to the Arctic, and a mission bigger than all of it. We are bringing your classroom with us through free K-5 lessons that turn real exploration into meaningful learning about the world, inclusion, and what is possible for students with and without disabilities.
Adventure belongs to everyone.
“Ren’s spirit and sense of self are inspiring, but more importantly, he demonstrates for all kids that anything is possible with a little spunk and a lot of perseverance!”
- Katie Ross, M.A.T., Special Education Teacher

This expedition wouldn’t be possible without our partners.
EMPOWERING POSSIBILITY TOGETHER!
Together with the National Down Syndrome Society, we’re making history and making sure every child sees themselves in the story.
NDSS is one of the world’s leading human rights organizations advocating for people with Down syndrome. This partnership brings together their global advocacy and our lived journey, uniting decades of leadership with a mission to show what’s possible when a diagnosis doesn’t define the person but reveals their true potential.
TAKE YOUR CLASS ON AN ADVENTURE!
Adventure Without Boundaries is a free docuseries created especially for educators. Each short episode follows Ren, a 10-year-old with Down syndrome, as he circumnavigates the globe with his family.
Students will explore new cultures, witness real-world science in action, and discover what it means to dream big — and go after it. Along the way, your class can send in questions, receive personalized shout-outs, and see that there's no one way to live a meaningful life, regardless of ability or disability.
This isn’t about what makes Ren different. It’s about what makes him unstoppable.
Sailing for Science and Ocean Conservation
Beneath the surface of this expedition is a deeper mission, one that extends far beyond our family.
As a proud member of The International SeaKeepers Society’s DISCOVERY Fleet, Salome is more than a sailboat. She is a floating research platform helping scientists protect our oceans. From collecting critical data in remote waters to engaging classrooms in real-time ocean science, we are turning every mile into an opportunity for discovery.
Explore the conservation efforts powering our voyage and see how one family can help protect a planet.
THIS WEEK ON THE OSBORNE ADVENTURE PODCAST
In this episode, students learn what Down syndrome is and what it is not, not just through science, but through real life. They meet a friend, a brother, a kid who loves French fries and being goofy, and see that inclusion is not complicated. It is simply how we treat one another.
