THE SLINGSHOT CHALLENGE
We believe that no problem is unsolvable and that great ideas come from ALL places.
Our community of 13–18 year olds rose to the challenge and created 1-minute videos describing their ideas for solving environmental issues.
We believe that, together, our ideas can lead to taking action to protect our planet and improve our future.
