Carter (age 12) and his sister Olivia (age 11) were born in Fayetteville, GA back in 2001 and 2002 respectfully. The two are extremely passionate about trying to save animals and clean up our environment for at least One More Generation... and beyond.
They started their own nonprofit One More Generation (OMG) back in 2009 in an effort to help teach others that we all are supposed to be stewards of God's creations and it is our responsibility to take care of all the animals and the environment.
Carter and Olivia have traveled around the country and even to South Africa in an effort to spread their message to their peers and communities everywhere. They have been guest speakers at numerous events and have spoken to over 10,000 people since starting OMG. Their message is customized to their audience and they are frequently asked to speak at colleges, church groups and schools across the country in an effort to inspire more people to stand up and make a difference.
Although their main focus started out to be just about trying to raise awareness about the plight of endangered species, they quickly learned that environmental issue such as plastic pollution was one of the largest environmental threats to people and animals around the world. They have since added various environmental education programs to their portfolio specializing in teaching communities how to better deal with the issue of plastic pollution. They even launched a weeklong Plastic and Recycling Awareness Curriculum which has been written to match several National and State curriculum Standards for science, literacy and even math.
Carter and Olivia also continue to raise awareness about such animal conservation issues such as the poaching of rhino, the deforestation issues in such areas as Borneo and Sumatra which are pushing orangutans to the bring of extinction, and shark finning. Their goal is to try and inspire the next generation of leaders to act now before it is too late.
Carter and Olivia's passion and commitment has been showcased on national TV and radio programs around the world and they hope to show everyone that "Anybody can make a difference... if they can, so can you".
