Our Mission

Vision: Environmental justice for every child in every school.

Mission: To protect children's health from environmental toxins and conserve natural resources for future generations.

Through education, training, and strategic support for schools and school districts, the GGI delivers measurable student wellness and improved academic outcomes while cultivating the next generation of environmental stewards. The GGI advances equity by directing its resources to communities that are disproportionately harmed by environmental injustice.

We believe

all children must be protected from environmental harm.

We work

toward a healthy, safe, and sustainable environment today and in the future.

We prioritize

We partner

with school district and community leaders who know their priorities best.

We know

it is not enough to prepare our children for the future; we must prepare the future for our children.
