​Dear Friends of NYSOEA,

​The New York State Outdoor Education is honored to represent you - our active members, affiliate organizations, and generous volunteers - by promoting outdoor and environmental education throughout New York State. It wouldn't be possible without your support.

Thanks to you, NYSOEA has been able to continue our tradition of supporting and connecting educators of all kinds to inspire people of all ages and walks of life to become lifelong students and stewards of the natural world. We are excited to continue this work in 2026!

We sincerely hope that you will consider supporting us as we pursue our mission through ongoing programs including our: Brother Yusuf Fund, Student Scholarships, Professional Development Workshops, Awards, Regional Events and other opportunities to meaningfully engage current and future generations in outdoor learning.

We know that we are stronger as a group than as individuals. Through the wisdom of the founders of this organization, we enrich each other through the company we share, even from afar. Your tax-deductible contribution will advance the efforts of NYSOEA to connect people with wide-open, boundless educational wonders of the great outdoors. 

Gratefully,
Josh Teeter
President, NYSOEA
