Climate and Environment Education

With this initiative, our goal is to promote great opportunities for those in need. With access to the right resources, people can become empowered by their own abilities and gain the confidence to fulfill their potential. We provided over 100 families with AC units. We targeted the underserved communities of color and the elder population. We host monthly workshops educating the community about the importance of sustaining our environment and its resources.
