Take the Pre-Survey
Take the Pre-Event Survey
I’ll take a short pre-survey to share what motivated me to join — and earn 15 points! (If I already took the survey by email, I’ll just mark this action complete to get my points.)
What is resilience?
Notice Resilience Around Me
Resilience shows up in many places. I will look for one example of resilience in my surroundings—whether in my community, work, or daily life—and reflect on what it teaches me about adapting to change.
Community
Connect with Someone
Strong communities are built on connection and trust. I will reach out to 3 others—friends, colleagues, or neighbors—to check in, have a meaningful conversation, offer support, or to meet someone new near me.
Community
Attend a Local Event
Local events such as farmers' markets, festivals, or community meetings like town halls are great ways to feel part of a community. I will attend 2 community events to connect with others and learn more about my area.

Warming weather promotes community! This weekend connected with 2 neighbors as we emerged from hibernation to hack at our rural properties. Met a new pup, too! -

Home stretch of ecochallenge 2026! Doing my best to track my activities same day but making "retro" claims when I have to. Excited to see Team KEEN results! -

It's DONATION DAY as KEEN closes out our annual Earth Month clothing swap. We'll be taking items to a nearby women's/family shelter - on foot. Green & neighborly! -

Yesterday joined fellow KEENmates picking up trash in PDX. We did good work, but I was pleased to see how clean our city is. Ongoing local efforts are making their mark!-

Kicking off our Earth Month clothing swap at KEEN today! Lots of great stuff on offer. Fun opportunity to clean your closet, pick up something that sparks joy and help our community with donations at the end of the week.-

For me, the most challenging part of Eco Challenge is remembering to check in!!!!!-
Coleman Young 4/20/2026 12:31 PMUgh I know! I had to set a reminder on my phone or I'd forget all the time to log my actions.

I have seen & talked to more people in the last 18 days than I have for all of Q1! Making community events a priority is getting me out there. -

Did not meet specific goals today - but am building a healthy collection of items for KEEN's Earth Month Clothing Exchange. KEENers don't forget this fun event the week of April 20-24!!!!!!-

Combined connection with recycling today! I share a Rid Well account with a neighbor. Today we organized for our next pick-up & had a good chat in the process. I lean on Rid Well to take flat plastic lids, threaded plastic lids, Styrofoam, multilayer plastic packaging & textiles. Another neighbor joined me and dog Bo for an extra-long walk this sunny afternoon!-

Can't do it all every day! I do try to "think green" all through Earth Month, though. Each year I come up with a few new tweaks.-
