What We Do
We educate and empower emerging generations to become environmental leaders, restoring local ecosystems and advocating for a greener, more just and healthier Cambridge, MA.
Our nature-based programs connect our community to our shared urban canopy and our local waterways. We’ve helped lead Cambridge toward NetZero energy goals ahead of other cities and towns through dedicated and consistent advocacy. We prize the value of all trees growing in the city, no matter where they are rooted. We support all work toward removing pavement and parking, and increasing transit, pedestrian and bicycle facilities for a cleaner, safer, more accessible and healthier future.
Green Cambridge works to create a more sustainable city and to protect the environment for the health and safety of all. We are a place-based 501(c)3 non-profit centered on career discovery programs for youth and creating local environmental volunteerism experiences for all.
Cultivating careers and conservation in the heart of our community, we use Cambridge’s urban forest and wilds as outdoor informal community classrooms. We engage all ages in environmental programming that centers on community and climate resiliency and justice. We advocate on behalf of our shared natural systems, the benefits they provide for all those who inhabit them, and more equitable land and resource use in Cambridge.
Green Cambridge enjoys the support of a dedicated board, active volunteers, donors, and interested citizens who generously give their resources to activities and conversations that advance our mission. Our community support is by far our largest asset and our success will hinge on our collective desire to make Cambridge a more equitable and sustainable city. Our team manages the programmatic work and leads the on-the-ground implementation of Green Cambridge’s vision in collaboration and partnership with supporters and volunteers.
