The Arboretum at Flagstaff
The Arboretum at Flagstaff is a community nonprofit dedicated to education and conservation. Located on 200 acres with a pond, butterfly house, and 750 species of plants and trees, the Arb offers a wide variety of events, activities and educational programs for the whole family.
Azulita Project
The Azulita Project was born from the desire of several individuals to create a healthier and more environmentally sustainable community and world. Moved by the rampant plastic pollution and overuse of chemical pesticides in the Los Llanos region, the four original founders—Mike, Lainie, Erwing, and Pato—joined forces in 2008 to create the Azulita Project.
In its initial form, the Azulita Project was a volunteer “communitarian” effort which included organic farming education programs, a recycling project, a youth soccer league, dance instruction, English classes and a community space for teaching and gathering.
In 2014 the founders reorganized the recycling portion of the project in pursuit of an effective and sustainable business model. The concept was simple: create an economic incentive for people to recycle plastic and create well-paying jobs.

Grand Canyon Youth
Grand Canyon Youth strives to share the educational power of the rivers and canyons of the Southwest with young people from diverse backgrounds. Our educational philosophy is to inspire curiosity. Youth spend time away from computers and cell phones and connect with their peers as they build teamwork, learn what they are capable of and contribute to scientific data collection. One participant sums it up this way: “I wish everyone could experience the tranquility of the Canyon, the thrill of each rapid, see the beauty of a Canyon sunrise, and hike to magnificent places. it would make the world a much happier place.” Grand Canyon Youth provides that opportunity for young people.
Healing Lands
The Healing Lands Project supports wilderness experiences for juveniles served by the Arizona Child and Adolescent Survivor Initiative (ACASI).
