Environmental Volunteers

  • Evols
    Cause Description:
    Environmental Volunteers promotes understanding of and responsibility for the environment through hands-on science education. We train volunteers to teach natural science to children in Santa Clara and San Mateo counties through classroom lessons, day camps, nature walks and field trips that nurture a connection to nature and spark interest in lifelong discovery and learning. Our programs help schools meet state-mandated education standards and provide unique science education resources for teachers and parents.
