Our Junior Board is an investment in the next generation of environmental justice leaders, and we can’t wait to see the ideas, energy, and passion they’ll bring to this work.

They may not be old enough to vote, but their future is on the ballot. So a group of Alabama kids started an organization to activate the nonvoters in their families.

Pride is a month dedicated to equality. At GASP, we believe that everyone deserves the right to clean air no matter their ZIP code, race, economic background, or sexual orientation.

It is widely known that minority groups such as the LGBTQIA+ community face disproportionate adversities, including environmental injustices. That is why we celebrate Pride: to remind ourselves that the fight for equality extends beyond legislation and representation. It includes access to healthy communities, safe housing, clean air, and the opportunity for all people to thrive.

As we celebrate Pride this month, we reaffirm our commitment to building a future where every person can live, work, play, and breathe free from pollution and discrimination.

Happy Pride Month! 🌈

We’re 1 week away from our second installment of Justice in the Margins!

We’ve created an open and free space to talk about intersectional climate issues and explore different ideas and perspectives on how to reach the climate solutions our communities need.

This time, we’re reading Climate Change is Racist by Jeremy Williams to kick off these conversations.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!: Saturday May 16th, we’re hosting a free pop-up market for the Acipco-Finley neighborhood. We will be hosting at Mt. Hebron Baptist Church to provide fresh food, non-perishable items, and clothing to those most impacted by industrial pollution.

To ensure everything goes smoothly we need YOUR help! We are looking for a few more dedicated volunteers to help set up our market, hand out items and clean up afterwards.

Volunteers are expected to show up at 7:30 AM to assist with set-up. Pop-up markets go by quickly so we are advising everyone attending to be on time!

Please visit Gaspgroup.org/volunteer to sign up for your shift today!
