Bee Girl and MicroMatching

July 11, 2022

Thanks for being part of 52andChange, a one-of-a-kind microgiving community, where every week we share an amazing nonprofit and all join forces to give a little ($1, $2, $3… never more than $10)* to help make a difference! 52andChange is also matching all donations, each week, up to $500… so consider your gift doubled!

Through Sunday we are spreading the news about Bee Girl! Through their research, projects, and education programs, they are regenerating soil, bees, and communities. Bees need to be saved not just for our own needs, but to preserve the very fabric of life as we know it on earth.

“My team of support staff, interns, board members, and I have given over 185 classes, workshops, and presentations and reached over 85,000 people (including 15,875 kids) in six countries and 25 US states. In a time of division, we connect people through a shared mission of healing our world — for the bees.”

—Sarah Red-Laird, Founder and Executive Director

Big thanks to these amazing nonprofit heroes for educating people, especially kids, on bees’ importance. They have also formed partnerships with universities, public land managers, and private companies to conduct bee heath and habitat research. The Bee Girl Organization engages with communities across the nation and the globe, spreading knowledge and bringing a sense of wonder from the hive to the people.

Find out more about Bee Girl’s programs and links to follow them on social media, and show the wonderful “worker bees” at Bee Girl that we have their back by giving a little and sharing a lot.

Thanks for making a difference this week!

It is an absolute joy to be a part of such an amazing network of humans making a difference.
