These initiatives will combine art, storytelling, and educational resources to foster open dialogues and provide support.
-
Environmental Sustainability Projects: Recognizing Rande's expertise as a Master Gardener and his dedication to sustainable practices, we will collaborate on urban gardening workshops and community clean-up events. These projects aim to educate residents on the impact of gardening practices on water quality and promote environmental stewardship.
