DINEO DOWD: EMBRACING MY CULTURE THROUGH THE OUTDOORS
Getting kids outside every day
Due to the challenges of the pandemic, kids are spending a lot more time online and too little time outside. To provide fun and easy ways for kids to go from screen time to green time, we’ve forged a new partnership with the National Wildlife Federation. The program, called “The Green Hour,” includes seasonal activities designed to encourage kids to spend more time outdoors. We will be sharing these activities every week, so stay tuned!
Stories That Inspire Us
We’re celebrating the power of community, the bonds we create with nature, and the change we can enable when we all come together for a greater cause in the outdoors.
