Nigel Savage, originally from Manchester, England, founded Hazon (Hebrew for “vision”) in 2000 by organizing and riding in a 3000-mile Cross-USA Jewish Environmental Bike Ride, in which participants cycled from Seattle, WA to Washington, DC, teaching and speaking along the way. They ended at the White House where they received a national award from the EPA. In 2008 Hazon was recognized by the Sierra Club as one of 50 leading faith-based environmental organizations; Hazon was in the Slingshot 50 for the fourth consecutive year; and Nigel was named a member of the Forward 50, the annual list of the 50 most influential Jewish people in the United States.
