Opportunity Details
Help Us Regreen Magnolia Science Academy-7!
Let's give this school more life - one of several spaces that need our help!
QUICK OVERVIEW
Calling all volunteers, community members, and nature enthusiasts! We’re joining forces with California Volunteers to plant California-native plants and create beautiful green space for an elementary school.
MISSION
Make a difference for Northridge, CA students and families by planting & regreening areas hard hit by the pandemic. Help us add green space to Magnolia Science Academy-7 and support the community by creating climate-action learning opportunities for children.
IMPACT
Join us while we add green space to an elementary school that absolutely needs it and create an environment for students to learn and thrive. Providing students with hands-on experience cultivating plants can inspire a curiosity for nature and instill valuable life skills in the next generation.
