Friends Education Fund

Inspiring and Educating the Next Generation!

Friends of the National Center launched the Friends Education Fund in 2023 to inspire, support, and educate the next generation of scientists and researchers. In a world where the stability of our Earth’s systems is under increasing threat, UCAR and NSF NCAR are committed to addressing the intricate challenges posed by our Earth’s systems by ensuring that cutting-edge research and innovation in atmospheric and Earth system science is carried forward into the future.

The Friends Education Fund has been created through generous donations from individuals and corporations and has already invested nearly $50,000 back into the UCAR and NSF NCAR community.
