Building Leadership Around Sustainable Transformation (BLAST) is a program designed to inspire and equip high school students to become environmental leaders. Your sponsorship will support student-led projects as part of the BLAST competition and summer internship program. BLAST projects teach beneficial work skills and give students a voice in the local community. By sponsoring BLAST, you will be inspired by the vision of young thinkers, entrepreneurs, inventors, and leaders. Please consider helping them make a difference!
