Heather Martin

Bringing people together helps strengthen bonds. I will organize and host a gathering, such as a potluck, coffee meet up, or shared meal, for friends, family, colleagues, or neighbors to foster connection and community spirit.

Daily movement supports our physical and mental health. I will spend 30 minutes each day exercising in a way that feels good to me, such as walking, running, stretching, or dancing.

Purchasing choices can strengthen community resilience. I will direct 4 of my organization’s purchases or events toward local or minority-owned businesses, helping build diverse and resilient economies.

Sharing our talents can benefit those around us. I will offer my skills or services that contribute to local self-sufficiency, such as teaching a repair skill or helping with a neighbor's garden.

Resilience in water systems means being able to adapt, recover, and thrive through change. I will spend 60 minutes learning how people and communities build water resilience and reflect on how I can apply this knowledge.

Eating a wide variety of colorful fruits and vegetables is a simple way to boost our personal health and support a more resilient food system. I will prepare and enjoy 3 servings of fruits and vegetables each day.
