About Us

  • BetterNature is a nonprofit committed to strengthening communities through sustainability, food access, and environmental action. Our four initiatives include Project IRIS, which manages food pantry operations, and Project Terra, which leads environmental cleanups with high school/middle schoolers. Project Hydro explores sustainable water filtration systems with professors, while Project Birdwatch aims to host birdhouse-building workshops and installs them in local parks with support from local retailers.

  • Every dollar donated goes straight toward advancing our four initiatives - fighting food insecurity, promoting sustainability, developing clean water solutions, and protecting local ecosystems.

Our First Fundraiser

  • A brown and white sparrow perched on a branch against a blurred green background.

    Over 600 North American bird species will be forced to relocate due to human devastation.

  • Sunlight shining through a dense green forested mountain landscape with layers of ridges fading into the distance.

    A staggering 420 million hectares of forests have vanished in the last 3 decades, with another 100 million at risk.

  • A polluted river flowing through an urban area, with garbage and debris scattered along the banks and on a concrete ledge.

    Every year, rivers around the world are choked by 5.8 million tons of plastic trash.
