New Hampshire Environmental Educators (NHEE) receives a grant from the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation to strengthen the organization's capacity to continue their work towards a New Hampshire where all people value and feel connected to our natural spaces, are environmentally literate, and act as social and environmental stewards in their communities.
NHEE recently received a $15,000 grant from the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation. The grant will help further NHEE’s mission to inspire connection to our natural world by supporting high-quality environmental education and advancing environmental literacy by covering operational costs to complete an ambitious strategic plan.
There are three main areas to the plan. The first was to hire an Administrator for the first time in NHEE’s 45-year history, which was accomplished in November 2023. With this hire, the board of directors can focus their efforts on the other two parts of the plan, fundraising and diversifying the board. With funding from the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation, NHEE will be able to update its website to increase visibility to potential board members and supporters, provide professional development to board members to help meet fundraising goals, and cover the day-to-day operations of a non-profit.
