Clancy has always been passionate about protecting native bees 🐝 And thanks to our Youth Climate Action Grant, he took his mission of building bee-hotels to the next level. “The funding covered the cost of tools and equipment, so I was able to facilitate a lot more and do the filming, editing and marketing needed to publish educational content online," Clancy said.
