AEOE is the professional association for environmental and outdoor educators in California. Your support strengthens our network of dedicated individuals and organizations across the state that are committed to using environmental and outdoor education as a tool to create lasting environmental change. AEOE is able to increase its impact through the financial support of foundations, partner organizations, businesses, and individuals. We appreciate your support!

Sponsors help to keep conference costs low for frontline educators, and allow us to bring in professionals to enrich the educational content of our conferences. If you are interested in becoming a sponsor of our 2026 statewide conference and bringing awareness of your brand to our community, contact AEOE Executive Director director@aeoe.org

Donate In-Kind Goods & Services You can support us with gifts in kind! Your company’s services or products can help us operate more effectively in order to meet our mission by offsetting operating costs or helping us to raise revenue and increase awareness of your brand through live and silent auctions. Please email AEOE's Executive Director at director@aeoe.org if you have items or services to donate.

Volunteer! Your time is of great value and we rely on the generosity of volunteers to achieve our mission.
