Education is Everyone's Business

Abstract
The Southwest Florida Council for Environment Education, Inc. (SWFCEE) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and expanding environmental studies in the community. SWFCEE is working to help students from pre-kindergarten through post-graduate studies learn more about our unique Florida environment. Environmental education is important so that students come to understand the diversity and value of our local ecosystems. The environment also serves to stimulate and excite students to pursue all areas of learning. However, environment educators don't always have the financial resources necessary to maintain and expand successful programs. Under a local board that consists of a varied mix of developers, contractors, engineers, environmental consultants, architects, attorneys, realtors, university professors, resort hotel owners, and local utility company managers, SWFCEE was established to help our community invest in these valuable environmental education pursuits. SWFCEE also works to establish partnerships between environmental education programs and donors willing to support these efforts.
