What if we could make sustainability second nature for kids—just like reading or riding a bike?
That’s exactly what Sustainability for Kids, founded in March 2022, is working to achieve.
The mission: to educate younger generations on how to live more sustainably—not just through words, but by transforming the very environments they spend most of their day in: schools, before- and after-care, and vacation programs.
“I am on a mission to provide education on sustainable practices and develop collaboration opportunities for the planet’s greater good”
