#NextGenRainforestRescuer Tyler: Inspiring Change

 In #NextGenRainforestRescuers, Conservation, News, Rescue, Supporters, Tree Planting

 Tyler - #NextGenRainforestRescuer#NextGenRainforestRescuers are a vibrant community of young conservation troopers who are making waves in the conservation of our natural world. From fundraising to tree planting, from making documentaries to educating peers, these young champions of the environment are creating change in diverse, impactful, and creative ways.

Since 2015, Tyler – now 12 years old – has been actively involved in our mission to Protect Rainforests Forever, regularly attending tree planting days with his family, as well as participating in his local community in many other ways.

Tyler regularly attends beach clean-ups with Tangaroa Blue, is actively involved in NAIDOC celebrations. At his primary school, Tyler advocated for First Nations acknowledgment, inclusion, and involvement. His passion for environmental activism knows no bounds.

When Tyler’s mother, Therese, got in touch with us last year to share that Tyler was nominated for the Year 7 Community Involvement Scholarship Award at his high school, we were thrilled and didn’t hesitate to provide a letter of support.

“Tyler is a committed environmental warrior and loves his connections with Rainforest Rescue – he prides himself as being involved from the very first year planting at NightWings.”
– Therese (Tyler’s Mother)

In his final year of primary school, Tyler served as School Captain, and one of his final responsibilities was contributing to the Circle of Plenty Community Day, a community food garden art project at Mossman Botanic Garden. As a parting gift to his school, Tyler planted a tree, leaving behind a long-lasting lasting legacy.

Next Gen Rainforest Rescuers - Tyler's legacy

“Tyler was awarded the Community Involvement Scholarship for his tireless effort and commitment to his and the wider community. Thank you to all his cheerleaders who wrote amazing letters of support highlighting his commitment to the environment, school, our diverse community clubs, and charities he has shared his love with and lent a hand to. He has learnt to use his voice and then advocate for those without a voice.”
– Therese (Tyler’s Mother)
