Education

Math / Science / Technology

We provide support to programs and initiatives in the area of education that promote success in the areas of math, science and technology. Additionally, we fund educational opportunities that also help to support environmental stewardship in the areas of conservation, habitat restoration and energy efficiency.

In addition to teaching students about the history of Navy, program curricula includes components on energy and water use, conservation and ways to be energy efficient in today’s world.
