We are currently looking for youth that are passionate about helping the environment, to help lead and start TUGI chapters. This would entail organizing and running TUGI workshops and programs at schools and community centers in your area while being a part of a national team that will help you along the way. You will also be using social media to help promote your chapter and creating new and innovate ways to help tackle problems such as climate change, food sustainability, etc.
The Urban Garden Initiative is a 501(c)(3) organization that aims to inspire and empower youth to achieve urban sustainability through a gardening-based program.
Description
We are an environmental nonprofit that aims to increase the environmental and sustainability education that youth are currently receiving. We have launched our workshop and program series at around 10+ schools and community centers currently, and are looking to expand our program to other cities and more youth. During these workshops we cover a variety of environmental and gardening topics ranging from climate change to food sustainability. We also help these schools and students to start a container garden as an easy and tangible way to grow their own food.
