Our recent EGE Out! field trip to the Oakland Redwoods was more than a day in natureโit was an opportunity for youth to connect with the outdoors, explore one of California's majestic forest ecosystems, and see themselves as part of the next generation of environmental leaders.
Black Conservation Week reminds us that Black people have always had a deep relationship with the land. From conservationists and scientists to farmers, naturalists, and community advocates, Black voices have shaped the environmental movement for generations.
At EGE Foundation, we believe access to nature should be for everyone. Through experiences like this, we're helping youth build confidence outdoors, deepen their connection to the environment, and discover pathways to leadership, conservation, and stewardship.
Because representation matters. Access matters. And every young person deserves the opportunity to experience the joy, healing, and wonder that nature provides.
๐ฟโ๐พ Happy Black Conservation Week!
