How this will help
This project will save us $8,660 , allowing us to focus on our upcoming convergence which will be filled with trainings, panels, and keynote speakers to invest in young climate leaders.

Testimonials

Read the Impact Story
Maryann was super helpful when guiding me in preparation for a webinar I was set to facilitate. She helped calm my nerves by giving me useful and practical advice. It was nice to have someone like Maryann be patient with me as I practiced my script in front of her several times. She also went above and beyond by watching a recording of the webinar I facilitated and gave me some quick tips that I can take with me for future public speaking opportunities. I would work with Maryann again and would recommend her to those who still get nervous doing public speaking.
