Public Education
The Sentinel Educational Foundation cares deeply about the current climate and social justice challenges facing communities and their environments. We contract with the Watershed Sentinel Education Society to research, produce and distribute print and electronic media articles about a broad range of environmental issues. We also provide small, more nimble grants to local community groups that are engaged in public education about sustainability and resilience.
