A Heartfelt Plea!

In a world captivated by screens and city lights, there exists a realm of pristine beauty, untouched by the chaos of modern life – our beloved National Parks. At Expeditions in Education, a passionate nonprofit fueled by a fervor for fostering learning amidst nature's wonders, we find ourselves blessed beyond measure. Our mission, anchored in the belief that nature holds the key to nurturing compassionate, curious, and conscientious individuals, has allowed us to impact the lives of over one million students and teachers annually.

A Million Lives Touched, and Still Counting…
It is with deep gratitude that we reflect on our journey thus far, a journey that has seen us walk alongside wide-eyed students and dedicated educators as they venture into the heart of these natural sanctuaries. The joy in their eyes, the laughter that echoes through the canyons, and the questions that spark inquisitive minds – these moments fuel our purpose and affirm the significance of our cause.

#STEAMInthePARK: Fusing Learning and Wilderness
Summer's warmth brings more than just sunshine; it brings educators to our National Parks for our annual #STEAMInthePARK event. Picture this: 400 passionate teachers, armed with insatiable curiosity, gather amidst towering trees and expansive vistas to exchange knowledge, share insights, and coalesce their commitment to nurturing the next generation of scientists, artists, and thinkers. The fusion of science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics with the boundless expanse of nature is a sight to behold – a testament to the potential that lies within our minds.

Forging Connections, Crafting Content
Our tireless efforts extend beyond events and workshops. Collaborating with National Parks across the country, we endeavor to craft new educational content that draws inspiration from the very fabric of these natural wonders. These connections bridge geographical distances and bring the essence of each park into classrooms, igniting a passion for preservation and instilling a sense of responsibility for our planet's treasures.

A Heartfelt Plea for Support
Operating as a nonprofit, our journey has been characterized by resilience, creativity, and a relentless dedication to our mission. Despite limited funding, we stand firm in our commitment to shaping future generations, urging them to embrace empathy, kindness, and stewardship for both one another and our environment. We may not be the gorgeous, spotlight influencers that attract brands and sponsors, but our hearts beat in harmony with the rhythm of nature, and our work speaks volumes about our unwavering dedication.

We extend an earnest invitation to companies, foundations, and organizations that share our vision – a vision that transcends monetary returns and envisions a world shaped by compassionate, thoughtful, and caring individuals. Join us in nurturing this noble mission, and together, we shall sow the seeds of change that will yield a harvest of good humans.
