Congratulations to A Rocha co-founder Peter Harris on receiving the Goble Foundation’s Freestarter Award!
Freestarters are innovative, entrepreneurial, deeply committed to the well-being of our world, and willing to pursue difficult paths regardless of whether anyone else follows.
Long before creation care became fashionable – or even fully understood – Peter and his late wife Miranda devoted themselves to protecting life on Earth as an expression of their Christian faith. For choosing this path and sticking to it for decades, Peter has been recognized as a Freestarter™.
In honor of Miranda pioneering A Rocha alongside him, Peter is allocating the $10,000 USD award gift to A Rocha International’s Harris-Naylor Scholarship Fund. This fund supports Christians to be hopeful, effective conservationists through A Rocha’s Conservation Certificate, created in memory of Miranda, as well as Chris and Susana Naylor, who were all dedicated to investing in young leaders.
