ONE UP ACTION

One Up Action (OUA) is a youth-led nonprofit supporting marginalized youth combating the climate crisis by providing them the resources to make their scientific climate solutions a reality and take direct action in their communities. OUA mobilizes youth in hyper-local climate actions, and distributes microgrants to young POC working on science and/or technological solutions. OUA's core values focus on community strength, serving the greater good, equity, and inclusion. To execute these values, we provide underserved neighborhoods with resources, funding, and support needed to start a chapter. The chapters are encouraged to implement projects to increase sustainability/conservation.

prevention organizing.

BREAKING BOOK BARRIERS

Breaking Book Barriers is an online platform for students in the US to trade in their old prep books for new ones. SAT, ACT, and AP books are incredibly expensive, particularly when students need several of these books throughout their high school careers. At Breaking Book Barriers, their goal is to ensure that all students have access to test prep material and are well equipped to succeed on standardized tests. Users can register on the website and choose the books that they need. These books will then be shipped out to them for free. Users can keep books for as long as they need, and then re-list them when they are done with their test. We keep up our inventory by asking for donations of your used books. We are currently looking for team members, both to work on the initiative virtually(marketing, content creation, etc) and to start a chapter of Breaking Book Barriers in their community. Please email if you are interested!
