The tremendously successful accomplishments of “Stewards of the Earth” are
attributable to the
strong, active, tireless leadership and community involvement of
its Executive Director, Board of Directors, volunteer team,
advisers, the local, State and national organizations and
individuals with whom we network and work. We support each other,
complement and avoid duplication of work primarily because there
is so much work to do and so few financial resources available to
combat huge corporate entities that have billions/millions to
spend.
