What grades did you participate in Girls on the Run?
Mackenzie is a recent college graduate with a degree in Geology pursuing a career in science communication.
“What I appreciated most about Girls on the Run was its balance between individual growth and collective support. We celebrated each other’s milestones, lifted each other when someone was having a hard day, and created an environment where leadership was shared. I learned that being a leader doesn’t mean doing everything alone – it means helping others rise with you.”
Mackenzie has been awarded $1,500 to invest in podcasting equipment for her journey to Greenland. In Greenland, Mackenzie will be a part of a Science and Art hub - a space where scientists, artists, and Indigenous community members gather to explore climate solutions. She intends to create a podcast to share the stories of those studying, learning, and working there.
