After the 2020 wildfires, Kyle Trefny became a wildland firefighter, connecting with peers passionate about transforming society's relationship with fire. This led him to co-found FireGeneration

After the 2020 wildfires, Kyle Trefny became a wildland firefighter, connecting with peers passionate about transforming society's relationship with fire. This led him to co-found FireGeneration Collaborative (FireGen) in 2022. FireGen is a youth-led organization dedicated to shifting wildfire management from short-term disaster response to long-term resilience and Indigenous leadership.

Trefny co-led FireGen's national campaign, advocating for youth roles in policy. This resulted in FireGen members advising a federal commission and Director Ryan Reed becoming the youngest federal advisor in US history. Trefny has also been instrumental in shaping FireGen's vision and securing over $350,000 in grants, empowering youth and Indigenous voices for the future.

In July 1960, Jane Goodall arrived in Gombe, Tanzania, to study wild chimpanzees. Her discoveries, including that chimpanzees make and use tools, profoundly changed science and redefined what it means to be human.

Recognizing threats to chimpanzees, Jane shifted her focus to advocacy. She launched JGI's community-led Tacare conservation approach, championed animal welfare—including opening JGI's Tchimpounga sanctuary—and traveled globally to spread her message of hope.

Jane's legacy includes the Jane Goodall's Roots & Shoots youth program, empowering young people in over 75 countries. Join us on April 3rd to celebrate Jane and uphold her vital work for people, other animals, and our shared planet.
