Woodbridge, Canada The Earth Rangers Foundation Full time

**Position Title: Presenter & Indigenous Education Assistant**

**Duration: Full time**

**Reports to: Show Supervisor**

**Background**:
Earth Rangers is the kids’ conservation organization, committed to instilling environmental knowledge, positivity, and the confidence to take action in children. We do this through a suite of programming that children can participate in at school, at home, and in their communities. All of these programs are educational and engaging—but more importantly, they show children that it’s not too late to help the planet, and the things we do today will matter tomorrow.

The School Assembly was the first Earth Rangers program, and has been running consistently since 2004. It began in the Greater Toronto Area, expanding across Ontario in 2008 and then across Canada in 2011. The assembly has been delivered to over 2.1 million elementary students from coast to coast to coast, including in First Nations schools and schools with high Indigenous student populations. The program consistently receives rave reviews from students, teachers, and administrators alike. The program is offered to schools 100% free of charge, has incredible production value, and inspires kids to become official Earth Rangers themselves through our follow-up programming.
