It's Earth Day! River, a passionate 2nd grader from Westdale Heights Academic Magnet, was recently awarded a $1,000 grant to help fund his idea to visit schools to teach other children about litter. Now, he's on a mission to get even more young people involved—partnering with schools, raising awareness, and reading to kids about how littering harms our planet. With heart and action, River is proving that anyone can protect the Earth—no Planeteer Rings required!
