Millennium Fellowship Project: Act Now for Tomorrow
As natural disasters throughout America deeply impact many lives, there hasn’t been much positive change to fix aid those who have been affected. The aftermath of the disaster such as deforestation, droughts, and destruction of many native species niches, have come together to degrade the environment. Whether through raising funds for distraught communities or spreading awareness pertaining to environmental issues, “Act Now for Tomorrow” will ensure that current and future generations have a better quality of life This group project, initiated by Ali Azzam, Emily León, and Navtej Dharmapuri Thirumala was inspired to revitalize communities that don’t have sufficient resources to rebuild following natural disasters.
