This school year, you can ensure we say yes to more opportunities for students and teachers.
Every year, Grades of Green empowers students and teachers to create meaningful change in their schools and communities.
We invite you to help us say yes to student leadership, teacher innovation, environmental action, and ideas that create healthier schools and stronger communities.
If you've ever had a teacher who changed your life… seen a young person achieve what they thought was impossible... believed that one idea can make a difference…
Then we hope you'll join us as a Founding Champion with a monthly recurring gift.
Together, we can help more students and teachers turn ideas into action.
Help Us Say Yes. Win Concert Tickets.
Grades of Green is proud to be an official nonprofit partner of Jack Johnson’s SURFILMUSIC 2026 Summer Tour through the All At Once initiative, which connects concertgoers with organizations creating positive change.
Support this goal by volunteering with us at Sunflower Farms or becoming a founding champion with a contribution starting at $10.
As a thank-you, you’ll be entered for a chance to win two tickets to see Jack Johnson at the Hollywood Bowl while helping us say “yes” to more students, teachers, and schools.
Grades of Green will be at the Village Green before the concert, and we hope our winners will stop by and say hello. We’d love to meet you, thank you for your support, and celebrate the impact you’re helping create for students and teachers.
