Nonprofit Organization Management - Kampala, Central Region, Uganda
Earth Volunteers a nonprofit organization that was established in 2020 to unite young people globally who are passionate about protecting the planet in various ways, this organization consists of 18 members but is not yet a registered entity due to a lack of support in documents perhaps is actively running and we are working on that. We help in volunteering in various sectors like climate summits, climate events, community reforestation programs, workshops, presentations, and climate change education programs. Ever since it was established, we have managed to pattern with different organizations in planting over 47600 trees, visiting and restoring 6 diminished forests in Uganda, We provide support for young people who like passing their message through climate strikes, in this, we have patterned with Fridays for future Uganda, Fridays for future MAPA and Fridays for future international. This is why in 2022 we decided to start visiting schools and educate them about the impacts of climate change and how they can make their voices useful for nature starting from school. When this was introduced the first organization to endorse it was UNICEF, which even when on and gave us the copyright to their book known as our changing climate which we are using today to educate the young generation about these impacts and what actions they can take, the type action we frontline is tree planting, it is cheap and easy to implement everywhere, you choose to plant evergreen trees or citrus trees. For us we frontline citrus in schools and evergreen in communities. As a person living in Africa, where climate change is a very real threat, front lining striking and taking actions in ecosystem restoration we see it as an impactful way to overcome this dangerous catastrophe that is threatening farmer's crops, indigenous communities, and wildlife.
