Our Impact
“In the early days of Grades of Green, it gave kids the opportunity to come together…and work together on things that are really meaningful.”
Sienna, Mira Costa High School Student
“What these kids are given through Grades of Green’s programs, the leadership skills they give them, it’s just an amazing amount of effort and work they’ve done. It makes me feel good about the future and the work they’re doing.”
James Hartzberg, COO of LAcarGuy
“This is my 25th year as a principal but one of my proudest accomplishments is the fact that I was at the grassroots of this amazing organization, Grades of Green.”
Rhonda Steinberg, Former Grand View Elementary Principal
“With Grades of Green stipends, a little goes a long way. It allows our program to build year after year. Without the stipends and funds, we wouldn’t have been able to double the size of our territory for gardens.”
Tim Magnus, Teacher at Victor Elementary School
