Kaitlan and Tonya started Wild at Heart to save wildlife in coastal NC. They specialize in the care of small mammals, reptiles, and all birds- big and small. They are the only active bald eagle rehabbers in coastal North Carolina. They have taken the NC rabies vector training courses and hope to be able to rehab those species in the near future (more time and money needed).
We began by transforming an overgrown, abandoned lot on Sumner Street into a thriving urban oasis. It’s now a place where people relax, enjoy nature, grow food together, share a meal together, make music, pick up their CSA, or attend a comedy event. Volunteers learn about gardening, rainwater conservation, food waste management, and other eco-conscious practices, all while getting to know their neighbors and having fun. We now own two sites (one of which has a first-of-its-kind geo-thermally powered greenhouse), operate five others, offer experiential and informal environmental education programs for school children, train teenagers for green jobs, and bring local fresh food to neighbors of all economic levels.
We believe that human beings are image bearers, endowed with God’s image in them, and because of that, all human beings matter, regardless of their ability, age, gender, race, socio-economic status, or religion. Human beings have worth, given and determined by God, simply because they are.
The belief in the worth of human beings leads us to believe that steps should be taken to lead to human flourishing wherever necessary. Generations have had selfish goals, instead of loving justice and seeking the peace and life of our neighbor, leading to the disparities we see in health care and in every other arena in our nation.
The Campaign for Southern Equality is working to build a South where LGBTQ people are equal in every part of life. A South where your zip code doesn’t determine your rights. Where all of us are free to be who we truly are and love who we truly love. At this unprecedented time of anti-LGBTQ attacks – and as public support for LGBTQ equality across the South continues to grow – we invite you to join us in Meeting the Moment in the LGBTQ South.
“BeLoved constantly is in the “eye of the storm” providing for those in need and helping us to remember the humanity in all.”
Our mission is to build community and promote economic justice.
Dismantling stereotypes, reducing fear, and empowering hope through telling stories across socio-economic difference.
We envision a beloved community that celebrates mutuality, abundance, and justice.
Theodore Payne Foundation for Wild Flowers & Native Plants is a force for change in Southern California. While we preserve the legacy and carry on the work of Theodore Payne — a pioneering Los Angeles nurseryman, horticulturist, and educator who was passionate about the native plants of California — our goal is to transform our region into sustainable, healthy communities. We do this by educating all people about the role native plants play in the local ecology, their place in our gardens, and how everyone can take part in making Southern California more life sustaining.
