NatureBridge is looking for board members!
We are thrilled to announce a public search for volunteer members of our national board.
A deeply engaged, entrepreneurial, inclusive and collaborative board is necessary for NatureBridge’s long-term success. We seek multiple individuals eager to collaborate with us to elevate NatureBridge to reach new heights and shape the next phase of our journey toward greater impact.
NatureBridge’s resilience while facing pandemic and climate change challenges underscored our national board’s role in providing the guidance and partnership required to navigate rapidly changing circumstances. To expand our reach to students and build larger-scale responses to climate impacts, we look for forward-thinking leaders who have a pulse on new ideas and bring practical and innovative approaches to redefine “business as usual.”
If you or someone you know brings a new and curious perspective, embraces change, practices big-picture thinking, champions equity, and is excited about being a vocal ally and reaching greater heights in support of youth education and conservation, please consider applying!
Please share this opportunity with those you think might be interested or who can recommend excellent candidates. Contact Daniel Student at dstudent@potrerogroup.com to share recommendations or for more information.

An Interview with Evening Outside Keynote Speaker Dr. Britt Wray
The minute we found out about the work of Dr. Britt Wray, we knew we wanted to learn more about her. A well-respected author and scientist, Dr. Wray possesses expertise in an area of research we talk about a lot at NatureBridge—specifically how we can be resilient, hopeful, and actionable amid a changing world, including the climate crisis. We’re thrilled that Dr. Wray will be joining us on May 16 for An Evening Outside with NatureBridge as our Featured Speaker. Ahead of the event, we had the chance to ask her a few questions relating to her work and her connection to the mission of NatureBridge.
