The Passport to Preservation is an educational tool for elementary school-aged children who live on or visit the Georgia coast. Join us on a fun journey across St. Simons Island to learn why it is so important to preserve and protect the forests, marshlands, and streams where this barrier island’s plants and animals make their homes.

WE PARTNER WITH LOCAL BUSINESSES AND THEIR PATRONS.

Pennies for Preservation is a voluntary 1% giving program in which the business community helps raise funds to preserve and protect greenspaces, wilderness areas, trails, waterways, wildlife, important habitat, and tree canopy on St. Simons Island.

Pugh defines connective labor as “the forging of an emotional understanding with another person to create valuable outcomes . . . . [It] is how we see the other, and how we convey to the other that they are seen.”

Monday, September 9, will be my first day back in the office after four months of mostly remote work and I have been (desperately) missing the magic of connective labor.
