About

History

Pursue Balance began taking shape in the mind of Kit DesLauriers in the fall of 2006, while she was on a trek to Everest Base Camp. Even as she was about to complete the goal of becoming the first person to ski all Seven Summits, Kit was already looking to the future for new inspiration. The Seven Summits journey had taught Kit how integral individual growth and environmental awareness was to leading a balanced life, and she wanted to nurture those values in the world around her. Less than a year later Pursue Balance was launched as a non-profit dedicated to providing leadership for personal transformation and environmental stewardship.

The Balance Logo

The Pursue Balance logo design was created by Virginian artist K Robins. The "Balance" logo is also known as "Infinity Come Undone" and represents the dance of balance between two forces energetically connected to each other and represents the balance in our own life or in the world. Pursue Balance uses the "Balance" design created my Ms. Robins to express the values of the organization on a personal as well as an environmental level. The logo is used in printed materials to represent the foundation the organization and its programs have been built upon.
