Our Supporters
Each year, we find individuals and organizations willing to support the Program so that it can continue to deliver the great experience it has for all our students.
Our 40th Annniversary
Last year, 2007, was the Program's 40th year, and we began a special ongoing effort to locate and reconnect with students, leaders, and families that were involved with the Program over the years. If you can help us locate people who participated in the past, please contact us by phone (617-969-0288), email ( contact@newtonenvisci.org ), or letter.

We are also looking for support to increase scholarships, plus maintain and expand the program's offerings. Please let us know if you can be part of that support!
Carol Lee Corbett Scholarship Fund Carol was a member of the Newton Conservators, and an avid supporter of the Environmental Science Program for many years. Garen was a student in the Program, and a Leader for several years as well. We are very grateful to Garen for his support. In 2008, we received a special contribution from the Newton Conservators to a scholarship in Carol Corbett's memory. We deeply appreciate their generous support of the program. If you would like to add your own support to the Carol Lee Corbett fund, please contact us to let us know how you would like to help. Donations of any size make a real difference! |
