Young, passionate, and relentlessly committed — these are the people who decided the environmental crisis isn't something to leave for someone else to fix.
The Future Redemption was founded by two siblings who believed that if the future is ours to inherit, it's ours to protect. TFR is proof that age is not a barrier to impact.
Co-Founder & Executive Director
At 16, Ashton co-founded The Future Redemption with a clear vision: the environmental crisis isn't something to leave for someone else to solve. With a sharp mind for strategy and a commitment to ecological justice, Ashton leads TFR's overall direction and mission — writing, organizing, and refusing to accept the status quo. Ashton co-authored TFR's comprehensive endangered species pamphlet with Kia, covering trophic cascades, ecosystem services, and the human health impacts of biodiversity loss.
Co-Founder & Director of Programs
Carmen co-founded TFR at 14 and leads the organization's growing portfolio of programs and educational content. She brings relentless energy to every project — from researching and writing about plastic pollution, microfibers, and climate change to building community around TFR's mission. Carmen's work is grounded in the conviction that education is the most powerful tool for change, and that everyone deserves access to the same information, no matter their background.
Program Coordinator & Operations Lead
Known within TFR as an absolute workhorse, Ima is the engine that keeps the organization running. From coordinating volunteers and managing logistics to driving outreach campaigns, Ima's dedication and work ethic are the backbone of TFR's day-to-day operations. Deeply committed to the cause and indispensable to the team.
TFR was built on the conviction that young people aren't just the leaders of tomorrow — they are the leaders of today. Our team brings energy, creativity, and deep conviction to every project we undertake.
