The Mary Kay Foundation has partnered with The Arbor Day Foundation and Dimensions Educational Research Foundation to fund the Nature Explore Classroom Grants. Nature Explore Classrooms are outdoor learning spaces designed to include nature in the daily lives and learning of children. Research shows that nature can help soften the impact of life stress on children, help them deal with adversity and reduce or eliminate anti-social behavior.
The maximum award amount is about $50,000. Organizations that serve women and children are eligible to apply.
