One of the biggest recent victories for the Sierra Club Foundation, John Muir Chapter, was securing approval for the construction of the Highland Wind Farm.

She worked tirelessly to educate her friends and local leaders about the need for clean energy and the many environmental and economic benefits wind energy has to offer.
