Groundwork Hudson Valley and National Geographic
Groundwork Hudson Valley, an environmental justice nonprofit, gained notable recognition in National Geographic's "America The Beautiful" edition for its impactful work in conserving urban green spaces.
As the Director of Community Engagement and Communications, I spearheaded the effort to secure Groundwork Hudson Valley's feature in National Geographic's "America The Beautiful" edition. This involved managing outreach to the lead editor and writer, crafting a compelling pitch, and executing a targeted communications campaign to highlight our work in conserving urban green spaces.
