In one word: radiant!

Citing her firm understanding of the climate crisis and its broader implications with other justice and human rights issues, Danielle wants to do what she can to raise awareness of this while advocating for climate justice. You can see her passion for such advocacy in her major at The George Washington University, where she is a rising sophomore studying international affairs with a concentration in conflict resolution. She’s also involved in the Yellow Tulip Project, a youth organization focused on normalizing conversations around mental health, as well as Seeds of Peace, a youth leadership development and conflict resolution organization.

Danielle Whyte is CCL’s Chapter Development Intern this summer! She is a rising sophomore at The George Washington University.

This Westbrook, Maine, native is currently CCL’s Chapter Development Intern. In her role, she utilizes calls and texts to increase chapter member engagement for CCL chapters nationwide. Through this internship, she hopes to hone her community engagement skills while developing new strategies for onboarding and new member retention, which she can apply to her future endeavors.

In her free time, Danielle likes listening to music, reading poetry, playing with her two cats, and spending quality time with her friends and family. Her favorite book is Manifesto for a Moral Revolution: Practice to Build a Better World by Jacqueline Novogratz.

Danielle says that “no issue exists in true isolation from another; everything is interconnected.” She hopes to spread this message to show that we are all in this together; working to fix one issue is sure to offer solutions to others.
