about

Environmental Education for the Next Generation (EENG) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded by undergraduate students at the University of California, Santa Barbara. We train and place teams of college-aged volunteers into 1st and 2nd grade class rooms for weekly lessons that spread environmental awareness to our youth. Our program features:


• Interactive activities and experiments that foster critical thinking about the wo rld we live in.

• Youth-to-youth mentorship and encouragement that bring education to life and empower young people to make a positive impact on
   their surroundings.

• Unique curriculum that aligns closely with California’s Education Standards, serving to enhance existing classroom activities.

• Dynamic structure designed to meet the diverse scheduling and curricular needs of our teachers. We are happy to adjust lessons as
   needed, ensuring our program is as enriching as possible in any class setting.


Through education and companionship, we seek to train future leaders who will help to change the way we interact with the world. Only by investing in our youth today can we protect our collective future.
