Young minds growing a greener future. 

Our Story

Green 4 Better was founded by Ella Shih, an 8th-grade student at Susan Middle School, along with a group of like-minded classmates who share a passion for protecting the environment and serving their community.

What began as a simple idea has grown into a meaningful student-led initiative. Through teamwork and real-world projects, students are creating practical solutions for sustainability while developing responsibility, leadership, and environmental stewardship.

We believe young people can make a difference — not in the future, but right now.

Our Mission

To educate, inspire, and empower students to take action for the environment while strengthening connections between schools and communities.

Our Vision

A community where sustainability is part of everyday life and where students lead positive, lasting change.
