Our mission is to empower young people to affect positive change in their communities. You can help build a better tomorrow. It starts right here. Right now.
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!

My name is Sarah and I am a 7th grade change maker. I am active in my community helping the homeless adults and children, students with special needs, elderly and protecting the environment here in Rhode Island.
I serve the homeless and provide them with toiletries throughout the year. I started a blessing bag program in my community which created hundreds of “blessing toilet tree bags” and passed them out to individuals in need. I participate in unified fitness helping special needs children develop confidence. I started a beach clean up to collect balloons and trash to protect the endangered seagulls and turtles in our state. I have educated students in my community about the endangered turtles in Rhode Island. I run lemonade stands in Rhode Island and donate the money to those in need. I look forward to continuing to be a change maker in my state!
