A Healthy Planet; The Sierra Club Foundation
One Charity that I really love is the . . .
The Foundation focuses on four main goals;
1. To Solve the Climate Crisis
2. To Secure Lands Protections
3. To Get People Outside (!!!)
4. To Build a Movement
What an organization! They look towards justice for all through conservation of habitat, water, air quality and our ecosystem. Some of my favorite initiatives that the organization funds are, Our Wild America, Sierra Club Outdoors, Environmental Justice & Community Partnerships and the Grassroots Impact, however, I will just talk about Our Wild America and the Sierra Club Outdoors.
The mission of Our Wild America is to protect the wild places in our country by keeping fossil fuels in the ground and protecting our National Treasures. Many people and companies, Patagonia being one, are coming together to speak out against the destruction of public lands and the use of these lands towards fossil fuels.
The Sierra Club Outdoors is all about getting people outside to experience the beauty all around us! John Muir, the program support for the club, says that "people who experience wilderness firsthand are much more likely to preserve it for future generations." The outdoors brings people together, creates dialogue, and natural connections. I think the club is an extremely important aspect of the Foundation that shows the connection between humans and the care for creation.
I think this is an incredible charity, and everyone should check it out here!
