Students in Action

Soren Scores a School District's Support

Soren, a 7th grader at Rosemont Middle School, recently won a Glendale Unified School District Foundation grant to carry out his Grades of Green project! By incentivizing students to monitor where waste is placed with gift cards purchased by the grant, he is aiming to reach his goal to reduce food waste on his campus. Soren has presented to many district staff members and will be presenting at the Board of Education Meeting on April 4th. Way to score, Soren!!

Way to Brick it on, Nkeng!

Nkeng Joel from Buea, Cameroon is getting things underway for Earth Month! This year, Nkeng is organizing a large community clean-up at Downbeach in Limbe, Cameroon. After collecting waste from the clean up, Nkeng and his team will be using the waste to create eco-bricks that will be used to build schools and sanitation facilities in his community. In order to organize the clean up, Nkeng has completed numerous tasks including forming partnerships, writing letters to the local delegation, hosting webinars, and conducting a media tour across Buea. His project has been featured in local press, television, and media. Keep up the great work, Nkeng!
