FAQ’s

Is the program FREE?

This program has always been free to educators. We are seeking a new donor to support this program. We shall keep you informed as to the status for next year.

For over eleven years the Panasonic Foundation supported the Eco-Citizenship Student Program in several states. Due to changes in the business climate, they have been unable to continue their support but strongly endorsed the program and would seek a collaboration with others to continue to educate students with STEM curricula and challenges.
