We're thrilled to share a project that's been close to our hearts. For the past few months, we've collaborated with the City of District Heights Sustainability Committee to develop an inspiring initiative named "Climate Chronicles: Empowering Voices in Urban Resilience." Now, we're reaching out to you, our community, to help turn this vision into a reality.
The Need for Climate Chronicles
In District Heights, Maryland, and communities nationwide, the impacts of climate change are acutely felt in neighborhoods with limited resources. Through our "Climate Chronicles" workshop, we aim to empower individuals to share their climate stories effectively, transforming them into advocates for change in their communities.
A Call for Your Support
We are turning to you for support during our year-end giving campaign to help us reach our fundraising goals. Not only will your tax-deductible contribution play a pivotal role in helping us reach our Phase 1 fundraising goal of $7,000 by December 31, 2023, but also will enable us to provide the workshop at no cost to participants. Any funds raised beyond the initial goal will be allocated towards the subsequent phases of the project.

Empowering Underserved Communities
Your support will empower underserved communities to become storytellers for positive change. "Climate Chronicles" is not just a workshop; it's a movement to raise awareness about climate issues and create a lasting impact in communities that need it the most.
Expanding Impact Nationwide
This project isn't confined to District Heights. We envision replicating "Climate Chronicles" in several communities across the country, ensuring that youth and women in the environmental and sustainability profession are actively involved in shaping a sustainable future.
A Storytelling Workshop for Advocacy
At its core, "Climate Chronicles" is a storytelling workshop designed to amplify underrepresented voices. We believe that everyone's story can be used as a tool for advocacy, and this project seeks to provide the platform for those stories to be heard.
Thank you for considering our project and any support you can provide. If you have questions or want to learn more about "Climate Chronicles," please don't hesitate to contact Nicole Jackson, Climate Justice Fellow with CEEJH at the University of Maryland School of Public Health.
Together, we can make a real difference in the fight against climate change!
