Champions for Change: Meet the Leaders Driving Community Action
November 25, 2024 | |

If we’ve learned anything over the past two decades, it’s that impactful, lasting change doesn’t happen overnight. Meaningful change takes all of us showing up—not just once, but for the long haul.

From retrofitting buildings and planting trees to increase climate resilience to growing fresh food in community gardens and equipping young leaders with skills for meaningful careers, our collective impact brings us closer every day to a world where healthy, green, just, and resilient neighborhoods are a reality for all.

None of this would be possible without the incredible community of champions that make up the Groundwork Network. Check out the videos below to meet some of the extraordinary leaders and learn about the projects and programs that inspire them to show up every day to champion a more equitable, resilient future.

As we reflect on all that we’ve accomplished together, we know that lasting change requires more than just a single moment of action—it requires sustained commitment.

That’s why we invite you to join our community of monthly givers, whose continued support fuels our ability to create long-term impact. Stand with us for the long haul and help advance environmental justice, create greener, healthier spaces, and build a more just and equitable future for all.
