ACE needs you. We need your creativity, your connections and your donations.

Between December 5 and 7, we want the world to know about ACE so we can continue to fund our education and leadership development programs for youth climate literacy and leadership.

We need you to:

Donate

Tell your story

– Share why ACE matters with the world

And we’ll thank you on our live whiteboard during office hours tomorrow through Friday.

We know ACE matters. We see it in the thank you notes from teachers and students. We measure it in surveys that show students are learning. We share it in studies that demonstrate that students’ attitudes towards climate change shifts dramatically after just one assembly.

ACE telling the world that ACE is awesome is, well, awkward at best. So we’re asking you, someone who knows the impact we make, to tell the world about why ACE matters to you.

See what people have submitted so far

We’ll thank you on camera between December 5 and 7. We’ll share your story. We’ll share it with potential donors to show that, yes, ACE is worth their donation.

So, if ACE matters at all to you, please:

Donate

Every little bit helps. From the $5 you find in your pocket to $5 million you know of in a fantastic foundation, the more we raise the more young people we can reach, teachers we can support, sustainable ideas we can get going in schools and communities and climate leaders we can train

Tell your story

We need your creativity, passion and personality. How can you tell the world ACE matters to you?

A tweet? A video? A picture? A comic? A status update? A poem? An interpretive dance? A song?

Anything that is uniquely you.

If possible, include a link to acespace.org/Why-ACE-Matters, the hashtag #ACEmatters or tag us (facebook.com/acespace). You can let us know through the link from online donations, on Facebook, at Twitter (@climateed) or via email at [email protected]

Share ACE with the world

We want to get the word out – to teachers, to donors, to parents, to anyone who would care about ACE. Starting tomorrow, December 5 through December 7, we’ll be sharing your submissions, thanking you for your donations at acespace.org/Why-ACE-Matters.

You matter to us. We hope ACE matters to you enough to ask for your help to get the word out, tell your story and help us raise the funds to do work that matters to youth, to schools and to our future.
