From a spark ✨ of passion to a force for change, Chase Hartman and Zach Hartman’s journey with Eco Brothers,Inc. is nothing short of inspiring. What began as a seemingly simple act to save books from being discarded has blossomed into a thriving nonprofit, earning them recognition as #DailyPointofLight Award honorees, national acclaim and a presence in all 50 states. Their journey didn’t stop there - they’ve expanded their impact even further by creating a Youth Board and Council, empowering the next generation to take the reins in volunteering and showing up for causes they care about. On this #InternationalYouthDay, we celebrate the power of young leaders like Chase and Zach, who are driving meaningful change in our world. Their work aligns perfectly with our mission at Points of Light: connecting people and organizations with a passion and purpose to take action that creates a better, brighter future for all. Let their journey remind us that you can inspire others and make a lasting impact no matter where you start, with dedication and heart.
