Heroes of the Week: Amelia and Ari

Throughout the week, our ACC Team searches through emails and news articles looking for someone who deserves to be the Hero of the Week… Find out how you can nominate a Hero of the Week at the bottom of the page.

This week, two extraordinary young leaders captured our hearts: Amelia and Ari, elementary school friends with a passion for making a difference. Together, they founded The Earth Savers Club, a group dedicated to protecting the planet through small yet impactful acts.

When asked about their mission, they simply said, “We go around doing things that save the Earth.” Their efforts are inspiring. They collect donations for animal shelters, help clean up beaches, and organize nature walks to pick up litter.

Amelia and Ari show that meaningful change starts with care and action. Their belief in kindness extends beyond nature; they emphasize treating everyone—whether team members or community helpers—with respect and compassion. What these young ladies may not realize is how deeply their actions resonate, reminding kids and adults alike that kindness is the foundation for a better world.
