Nosotros is Ohio’s “raddest” nonprofit rock climbing gym, dedicated to growing a socially conscious community around their favorite sport.

In 2011, Ohio local Peter Stancato had an idea: create a rock climbing gym that brings the Cleveland community together.

According to Peter, more than 50% of his growth and 75% of awareness can be attributed to Facebook & Instagram.
