Empower Youth Climate Champions in Peel on Giving Tuesday!

This Giving Tuesday, let’s unite for the cause closest to our hearts: empowering our young generation through climate education and action. November 28th is not just a day to give—it’s a day to inspire change and create a sustainable future for our community.

Did you know? Our most significant impact is on children and youth—thousands of passionate young minds that join us each year for hands-on environmental action and learning. Their enthusiasm for the planet is an important driver in addressing climate change and we need to amplify their voices.

As we experience the impacts of climate change more in our daily lives, it is especially important to support youth who are working hard to protect our planet. Together, we can build a sustainable future by supporting the next generation of climate leaders.

Youth Action, Amplified
Your support has the power to inspire and drive change. See your impact make a tangible difference in our community. In 2023, youth helped make the region more sustainable in these ways:

STUDENT VOICE

Through the EcoBuzz Conference run by the Peel Environmental Youth Alliance, hundreds of students learned about climate solutions.

LAND STEWARDSHIP

Youth volunteers have stewarded 45,394 square meters of our earth, nurturing biodiversity and resilience.

FOOD SECURITY

3,450 lbs of sustainable produce, tended by young growers on our urban farm, harvested and donated to local food banks.

 

VOLUNTEER LEADERSHIP

More than 4,000 hours have been devoted to greening our region, with youth leading the charge in tree planting, litter cleanups, and community gardens.

As we experience the impacts of climate change more in our daily lives, it is especially important to support youth who are working hard to protect our planet. Together, we can build a sustainable future by supporting the next generation of climate leaders.

Our Goal
This Giving Tuesday, our goal is ambitious but vital: raise $10,000 to catalyze youth-led environmental initiatives. Every contribution propels climate action forward.

Recognize Your Role
For generosity that goes above and beyond ($100+ donations), we honor you on our Donor Tree—a living art piece crafted alongside our youth, to stand proudly in our community hub in downtown Mississauga.

From Their Hearts
“Throughout the program, I learned so much about sustainability and how I can alter small decisions in my life to impact the environment in a positive way. I now think and ensure I make adequate decisions before doing even the smallest actions.”

“Volunteering with Ecosource was a transformative experience. I am grateful for the opportunity to have made new friends, learned new skills, and contributed to the community in a positive way.”

“I will always cherish my experience with Ecosource. I learned so much about nature and the world around us. I also had the chance to make lasting friendships with people form all walks of life. Through our shared experiences and passion for the environment, we were able to form connections that will stay with us long after the program has ended. I am grateful for the memories and learning opportunities that I gained through my time with Ecosource.”
