EMPOWERING YOUTH-LED CLIMATE ACTION

Good Hustle for Climate

StartSomeGood launched our Good Hustle for Climate online course in 2024, delivered over 5 weeks and a perfect first step for young people who are ready to make a difference for climate action. The program is co-delivered with Boomerang Labs through a combination of on-demand online resources and 5 weekly coaching calls.

Thanks to support from the City of Newcastle and City of Hobart through Bloomberg Philanthropies’ Climate Action Fund, we were able to offer this program for FREE to Newcastle- and Hobart-based young people! 

If you’re a council or other organisation interested in partnering with us on a future Good Hustle for Climate, please let us know!
