EVENTÂ
SPONSORSHIP
Dear Environmental Education Supporter,
​
We invite you to show your support for environmental education in our state by sponsoring Kansas Association for Conservation and Environmental Education (KACEE) events this year. KACEE unites public agencies, teachers, community organizations, businesses, and individuals behind a common cause - teaching kids how to think, not what to think, about environmental issues through non-biased and science-based EE.
KACEE is a 501(c)3 organization with a vison to grow a healthy, vibrant and resilient Kansas through the power of environmental education. A portion of your sponsorship is tax deductible. Your sponsorship will be recognized in our promotions, reaching 1300+ people across Kansas.
​
By sponsoring our fundraising events, you will help offset costs, reduce registration fees, and provide scholarships for educators. Support for environmental education is vital for a healthy environment, vibrant economy, and successful communities.
If environmental education is something that you or your organization deeply values, sponsoring one or more of our events provides the opportunity to live your values and lead your community by example.
​
Thank you for your consideration!
​
The KACEE Board and Staff

Hi, I'm Keri Harris!
I am the District Manager at the Franklin County Conservation District, and I'm also the current KACEE Board President.
​
I have signed up as a KACEE Supporter at the Individual level because this membership supports me as an individual who cares about environmental education in Kansas.
I have also registered my organization, FCCD, as a KACEE Supporter at the Organizational level, for the benefits and resources being part of the KACEE Community provides the conservation district.
​
Additionally, FCCD supports KACEE as a sponsor and partner!
