For five decades, NAAEE has promoted excellence in environmental education throughout North America and beyond, working with partners around the world to strengthen the field of environmental education and increase the visibility and efficacy of the profession. As a backbone organization for the field, we support educators from all sectors who are doing the important work to advance environmental literacy, civic engagement, and social justice. 

Two New Ways to Give to NAAEE

We are pleased to launch and invite inaugural gifts to the EE Futures Fund and Legacy Society. 

EE Futures Fund

With contributions of $5,000 and above, the EE Futures Fund will become the critical venture capital that enables NAAEE to deliver a new generation of timely resources, insights, and innovations to support educators, conservation practitioners, and sustainability-minded citizens in an increasingly complex world. Learn more >

Legacy Society

A planned gift to NAAEE allows you to support yourself and your loved ones and care for NAAEE.  Your legacy gift will provide NAAEE with the critical financial resources to ensure its future and ability to support the development of environmental education for future generations. Learn more >
