Hello,

Congratulations for (nearly) reaching the end of 2021! Thank you all for being such an incredible and supportive community. From all of us here at Be The Change Earth Alliance, we want to wish you a happy holiday break full of warmth and cheer.

With YOUR support, Be The Change engaged over 7,000 students and 3,000 community members in learning and action on climate, environmental and social justice issues this year. Below we highlight some of the NEW initiatives we launched in 2021! A core goal of our team is to foster hope and joy throughout all of our programming, so let's celebrate our achievements together!

But first, some thank-you’s are in order. To TEACHERS, we thank you for learning, collaborating and co-creating with us to bring meaningful climate education to students across BC. To our DONORS, we cannot thank you enough for your generosity in helping us raise over $25,000 so far this year! And to EVERYONE reading this newsletter, we value you and appreciate all the ways you support, participate in, and help grow the Be the Change community.
