My Nonprofit Reviews

Earth Child Institute (ECI) is an organization with an important mission. Associated with the United Nations Department of Public Information and accredited as an NGO observer to the UNFCCC, ECI works with governments, donors, the private sector and intergovernmental organizations to develop and facilitate innovative practical, values-based and cost-effective and participatory solutions across-sectors to meet the rights, needs and capacities of children as key stakeholders of the future.

The core focus of its work is related to climate change, water, children’s environmental health and education for sustainable development. The cornerstone campaign of Earth Child Institute is called 2.2 Billion: The Power of One Child + One Tree = A Sustainable Future for All which seeks to empower and mobilize the world’s 2.2 billion people under the age of 18 to reforest Mother Earth. The campaign is endorsed by UNEP’s Plant for the Planet, Billion Tree Campaign and UNICEF’s Unite for Climate initiative.

Executive director Donna Goodman is the highly creative, widely respected, and able force propelling ECI forth. Having known Donna for many years, it is a pleasure and privilege to now be collaborating with her on a jointly conceived initiative: Power of One Child - A Global Network Regenerating Mother Earth and its Children.
