Congratulations to Gold Award Girl Scout Aliza for receiving the 2024 GSUSA Gold Award Scholarship! 🥳
Aliza’s project, “Slowing Down Fast Fashion with Natural Dyes,” exemplified the core components of the Gold Award and demonstrated remarkable leadership in driving meaningful change within her community and beyond.🎖️ Her goal was to raise awareness about sustainable fashion and the slow fashion movement, with a focus on educating and empowering teenagers.👕 Aliza organized workshops at a summer camp, a local farm, and her high school, where she taught participants how to create natural dyes from kitchen scraps or native plants.🌿
Megan Freeman from coastalrootsfarm, Aliza’s community partner organization, noted that her project enhanced their offerings by providing enriching, farm-based programming for teens and information on using natural dyes for future programs. Way to go Aliza! 🎉
