New Voices is raising $25,000 by June 14th to power the 2019 Summer Climate Justice Leadership Academy. New Voices youth know we need to act now for climate justice. So don’t wait – donate to the crowdfund today!
Thanks to you, we doubled our challenge match and raised over $21,000 for grassroots groups working from the bottom up to protect nature, build climate resilience, and advance social justice.
Congratulations to our two Anthony Grassroots Prize Winners, Winnemem Wintu Tribal Chief Caleen Sisk, and environmental justice advocate Denny Larson.
On March 15, 2019, New Voices joined thousands of youth in California and over a million worldwide in the Youth Climate Strike, a youth-led protest demanding legislative action against the looming threat of climate change.
The number of those affected by disasters is expected to grow in future years due to climate change, creating a long-term need for second responder organizations like our grantee, UpValley Family Centers.
On March 6, 2019, we lost Denny Larson – a friend, a teacher, a Rose Foundation grantee and funder, and a tireless partner in helping fenceline communities across our shrinking planet to demand environmental justice.
It takes a village to build a strong movement, but there is always one leader who goes above and beyond for their cause. One such person is our 2017 Anthony Grassroots Prize winner Regina Chichizola for her dedication to protecting the California watersheds.
