Blog : Giving Tuesday Message from Koby

My name is Koby Gardner-Levine, and I’m a member of the Board of Directors for the Hitchcock Center for the Environment. Being on the board has given me the opportunity to see firsthand the impact this organization has on our community, country, and, really, our world. The work of the Hitchcock Center is of the utmost importance, especially since climate change has become a primary concern for all of us! In 2023, our farmers across Western Mass lost entire fields to flooding in the summer and entire orchards to extreme freezes in the early spring. We’ve also seen damage to town infrastructure across our region. The impact of climate change is here and now!
