Anton's Global Change Masters Program

Donation protected
Anton Parisi is an amazing human.  He is kind, generous, empathetic, passionate, and works hard to better himself and the world.  After overcoming many obstacles in his life, Anton has spent years working hard to help make the world a better place through teaching, mentoring, supporting teens and his biggest love: environmental education and advocacy. 

Anton has always worked for the betterment of his community and asked little for himself.  When asked to come and head up teen services in the Up Valley he answered the call.  He has spent the last four years working as a Teen Director in Napa County advocating for mental health, college tours, retreats, and emotional education for teens.   He lives simply, trying to live his beliefs to the best of his abilities all while helping those that need it the most.

 Anton has been given an amazing opportunity to live and learn in Berlin after being accepted into the Masters program in Global Change Management at the Hochschule für nachhaltige Entwicklung Eberswalde (School of Sustainable Development) in Eberswalde, Germany. It is a two-year interdisciplinary program where Anton will hone skills in scientific research and study carbon sequestration, mitigating climate change, and socio-environmental systems. This will allow Anton to get back on his path for sustainable agriculture to look at effective ways farming and food can help empower communities and the environment.

 After many financial losses due to the pandemic, Anton still needs $8,500 to cover the transition to Germany, housing, school supplies, and health care.  After years of given to his community it would be a wonderful “thank you” if his community could give back to him.  I have personally known Anton since he was a kid and I can think of no one who deserves a little kindness in return than him.  Any amount will be gratefully appreciated. 

 
Thank you for your help.
