My Nonprofit Reviews

The Walden Woods Project is devoted to the preservation and education of the legacy of H.D. Thoreau and the woods that inspired the writings of Thoreau. The WWP also helps teachers around the world --giving lectures, workshops, and lesson ideas that will enhance their classrooms and their teaching of Thoreau. I have enjoyed the "Thursdays with Thoreau" conversations for this month of April, and I hope it can continue (even after the quarantine). It has been a perfect way for using Thoreau's writings to inspire us through this devastating situation. I have met some wonderful people and been deeply inspired by these moving conversations using Thoreau and his quotes and writings as focal points. It would be great to continue these Thursdays--at least though May (or for as long as we must be in this "home" situation). Thank you to Jeff, Whitney, and Sarah for such a great experience and inspirational virtual conversations. I have learned so much not just about Thoreau, but about myself and the 21st century we live in. This is what I look forward to every Thursday. This has really given me sense of understanding and being in this crazy world we live in. I will leave with my favorite quote so far--what Jeff said in the "Society" week---"If I am not I, who will be?" Find your "Walden."
