LOCAL TO GLOBAL JUSTICE TEACH-IN

Our group joined other social activist groups with an informational table at the 5th annual Local to Global Justice Teach-In at Arizona State University. Adults and children sat down with us to make origami peace cranes and chat about the Roots & Shoots mission, how to start a group, and about our ongoing projects. We collected $8 for our fundraiser for the Common Ground Collective, as well as lemons from the Phoenix Permaculture Guild so that we can raise funds with a lemonade stand. We also made a connection for an ongoing fundraising opportunity for our group through Cartridges for Kids. At the end of the day, the children helped clean up trash that had accumulated in a nearby fountain.
