Maddie (left) volunteering during the 2016 federal election.
I began volunteering in 2015. Since then I’ve gotten to know this community of strong, like-minded people who believe in the same things I do, have amazing stories to tell, encourage me to act and give me a great sense of belonging.
I advocate for protecting the environment and combating climate change because I believe we can’t continue to carelessly take and use without deep consequences. We are not the only life on this earth and it’s not all about us! We have so much left to learn about our planet and I want to help safeguard this for the next generation of scientists and explorers, as well as for all life’s intrinsic right to live.
