Daily Acts’ ECO2school Program is excited to present the Green Heart Community Design Challenge Showcase!
This showcase introduces our youth designers and their amazing projects submitted in the challenge this past year. The Green Heart Community Design Challenge is a youth leadership environmental design challenge focused on creative solutions to community environmental concerns. The showcase, hosted by Daily Acts’ Leadership Institute Program Manager Nichole Warwick and Eco2school Program Coordinator Kevin Anderson, briefly reviews the challenge from the past year and how to participate in the coming year. Then, you’ll learn about how youth from across Sonoma County are reimagining their communities as safe, connected, energy efficient, and resilient.
