The American Public Gardens Association (APGA) is excited to launch two new membership levels this year! The Allied Membership and Student Membership. The Allied Membership welcomes non-garden, non-profit organizations to join the Association. APGA encourages nonprofit organizations that champion or work with public gardens to join to enhance the work of their organizations and staff members. Allied members who qualify must hold an IRS 501 (c)3 non-profit determination or equivalent non-US designation. Organizations defined as public gardens, botanical gardens, arboretums, or parks do not qualify for this membership. Regarding the Student Membership, college students must be enrolled as full- or part-time students in a compulsory or higher education system. They must provide an active college or university email address and provide current course registration. Students will need to requalify annually. Students also cannot be a full-time employee in the public garden industry. #APGABoston24 #APGAConference #APGA #PublicGarden #PublicGardens #GardenConference #AmericanPublicGardensAssociation #Boston #gardeneducation #gardentips #networking #greenindustry

Today is Giving Tuesday - a global movement that inspires millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity. For 80 years our charity has been sharing the benefits of environmental education with schools across the UK. We know that schools can often face financial barriers to access outdoor education, which is why we give grants to state schools where at least 10% of their students receive pupil premium. After attending our courses, schools report positive health and well-being impacts, especially resilience, confidence, and teamwork. They have told us how their groups learn environmental knowledge, especially understanding topics after seeing them in real life. And the positive impact even includes the outcome of examinations and improved curriculum success. One primary school told us: “The experiences allow children freedom to learn in a way that the confines and rules of the classroom cannot.” Uplifting feedback from a secondary school included: “The course opened a box of new skills and strategies to further develop and pursue outdoor learning in my school” Today we would like to ask you to consider supporting our charity and the work we do in our mission is to create outstanding opportunities for everyone to learn about nature. You can donate here: https://ow.ly/o4GR50QbA6L #GivingTuesday #EnvironmentalEducation #PrimarySchools #SecondarySchools #OutdoorLearning

📣 Good news 📣 For the second year in a row schools in BCP Council, identified the highest percentage of young carers on the school census! We have also seen significant improvements in identification for the schools that belong to the Isle of Wight Council and Dorset Council UK. This is fantastic news, it shows that the support MYTIME Young Carers offers schools through our Level Up Programme is working. It also provides a stark contrast to the national data which showed that 72% of schools didn't identify any young carers at all. Why does this matter? The data MYTIME Young Carers has gathered shows that being a young carer has a huge impact on both attendance and attainment. It is only when schools identify young carers that they are able to provide the support young carers need. In one local secondary school in BCP that we are working with, they have developed strategies which have improved the attendance for 70% of their young carers! That is amazing and something to be incredibly proud of, the impact this will have on the young carers at that school will be life changing. MYTIME Young Carers receives no government funding for this work- imagine what we could achieve for the young carers of this country if we did! #schools #headteachers #education #youngcarers #funding #charity

#GivingTuesday is here! Today, education remains inaccessible for many children. Emerging countries have fewer resources for schools, leading to crowded classrooms and different educational levels forced together. When families struggle to find employment or even put food on the table, the cost of tuition, books, and uniforms is too much. This is where BrightPoint transforms lives for the better – and you can, too. We'd love your support - we are 30% of the way towards our year-end goal. https://lnkd.in/gV5dti9s #childsponsorship #sponsorachild #wearebrightpoint #brightpoint #childsponsor #sponsorship #donorrelations #monthlygiving #recurringgifts #orphancare #orphans #globalorphancare #nonprofitorganization #churchmissions #missions #missiontrip #educateachild

Students’ Food and Housing Costs Continue to Rise, While Resources Fall Short | Food and Housing Survey: Understanding Students’ Basic Needs https://lnkd.in/gxpHQX_X via California Student Aid Commission | November 16, 2023 "Overall, 53% of respondents were identified by their survey responses as housing insecure, while 66% were food insecure. Food insecurity is a more widespread problem and relatively high across all segments. Students at California State University (CSU), California Community Colleges (CCC), private non-profit, and private for-profit schools all reported experiencing above-average rates of food insecurity. Housing insecurity, on the other hand, was highest amongst students enrolled in a CCC or a private for-profit institution." #CCC #CSU #foodinsecurity #foodsecurity #feedinghope #collegestudents #survey #report #california
