Ellyanne Wanjiku
Eco warrior Award. Africa youngest climate change ambassador. Nominated Kenya’s Youngest Mashujaa.
Ellyanne Chlystun-Githae Wanjiku started planting trees at the age of 4 years and has planted over 1 million trees.
In December 2017 she was invited to the United Nations General Assembly as the youngest delegate where she learnt more about Climate Change & met leaders, ambassadors, and directors from all over the world.

Our Featured Work
After planting her first tree—an orange tree in the family’s back yard—Ellyanne found ways to continue planting more. With permission, she began planting trees in Nairobi’s Karura Forest with friends and eventually, was invited to organize tree-planting activities for companies as part of team-building events and corporate social responsibility activities.

The Genesis
In 2016, Ellyanne founded the non profit Children With Nature, and has set up tree nurseries in 80 public schools in communities where children lack nutritious meals. Through the partnership, children plant seedlings in bags at school, nurture them as they grow into trees, and the schools sell the seedlings in their community to generate income.
