TORONTO — WWF-Canada is empowering the next generation of leaders by awarding 62 Go Wild Grants to projects across the country at schools from preschool to post-secondary. Valued between $1,500 and $2,000, these grants will support on-the-ground student activities to protect or restore nature in schoolyards, campuses and communities. …This year’s projects include restoring wetland, forest and prairie habitats, as well as a new pilot project that will support 23 schools in growing, harvesting and sharing native plant seeds, multiplying their impact by helping others create more habitat in their communities. Go Wild Grants support young people in learning about their local ecosystems and deepening their connection to nature while developing hands-on skills like researching, planning, budgeting, leadership and teamwork that empower them to be champions for nature in their lives and careers.
