| Opportunities to Grow, We All Need Them |
As our youth face an uncertain climate future, you can support them in becoming the empowered food and environmental leaders of tomorrow. By donating to CUESA, you help them both connect with nature and develop critical skills that will sustain them throughout their lives.
This month, we’re featuring change makers in our community who are part of a fair and regenerative future. Today, meet Diamond Ozan, a sophomore at Mission High School, where she participates in CUESA’s Foodwise Teens. Your support of this program means that teens like Diamond are nurtured to build confidence and grow to become environmental leaders. |

His wife, Helen Attowe, shared this remembrance. |
