Editor’s note: This year, we received an unprecedented number of applicants for our annual Student of the Year award, and we were honored to hear the stories they had to share about their experiences at NatureBridge. We would like to recognize one of our 2024 runners-up, eighth grader Nina Mao from San Jose, CA, who attended NatureBridge Golden Gate with her class from Stratford School Palo Alto in 2023. Nina is one of the thousands of young people who has been impacted by their time at NatureBridge and who continue to inspire those around them with their commitment to our planet. Please help us congratulate all of our 2024 Student of the Year runners-up!
At NatureBridge, we celebrate the stewards of today and foster the development of the stewards of tomorrow, working to inspire environmental stewardship in all our participants. Our goal is to motivate our students to make waves and be changemakers in their communities and for our planet.
Each year, NatureBridge honors a student who has demonstrated leadership, growth and a commitment to protecting our natural world as a result of their participation in a NatureBridge program. This year’s honoree will be recognized and will speak at An Evening Outside with NatureBridge on Thursday, May 16 at our Golden Gate campus.
