The Roots & Shoots Model focuses on best-practices in Service Learning to grow compassion and action in young changemakers. Together, we're growing a movement.
Anyone, anywhere can make a difference for people, other animals, and the planet we share. Get started by exploring and creating your own community project!

River Daisy is a 9 year old girl who has been passionate about climate justice since she learned about Greta Thunberg at age 4. River started protesting like Greta right away and has been out every Friday with a sign that says “Love Mother Earth” for the last 4 1/2 years. I can’t remember when we learned about Jane but it was early on in her education and she immediately fell in love with her. River has had Jane’s quotes plastered all over her walls and even named her stuffed chimpanzee Greybeard. We have been honoring the life of our dear Dr. Jane ever since hearing of her passing on October 1st 2025. We are honored to be a part of Roots and Shoots and see what we can join or organize in our area 😊
