104: Connecting Children To Animals Through The National Park Foundation

Sarah Gardner is the Director of Marketing at Joovy, a global leader in premium juvenile, toy, and sporting goods products for babies through toddlers. Sarah is married to the founder and CEO, Rob, and they have three children together. For the last 16 years, Sarah and Rob have raised a business and family together. She’s worked in almost every area of the company over the years and is now leading the marketing team. Sarah spent her early years hiking the mountains of New England, where she fell in love with the outdoors.

She grew up with parents that instilled in her that she could do anything and everything she set her mind to do. She held numerous scholarship pageant titles as a teenager, worked for the World Cup Organization, and has been the driving force behind Joovy’s mission to be good to each other, good to the world, and good to the environment.

Joovy’s new initiative with the National Park Foundation brings awareness to the endangered animals living in the parks, especially the value of teaching our kids to connect to animals. Our kids are the next environmental stewards and as parents, we can empower them to have empathy and concern.

Did you know that the greatest threat to endangered animals is the destruction of their habitat? The best way to help is through education about these animals and their habitat. Please help support endangered animals by shopping Joovy’s National Park Collection. They will donate 5% of your purchase to the National Park Foundation, the official charity of America’s national parks and nonprofit partner to the National Park Service. It’s never too early to start teaching kids to love animals and the outdoors.

Jill Devine invited Sarah to come on the podcast to talk in more depth about Joovy’s new initiative.
