The Rotary Club of Whistler is excited to announce the creation of an Environmental Education Fund for the purpose of providing annual seed funding to local or international environmental sustainability education projects or scholarships. The fund has been created with a very generous donation of $20,000 from the Environmental Education Action Programs Society (EEAP) at our March 29th Alumni Night celebration.EEAP, initially established in 2003 by club President Ken Martin, has been involved in numerous education programs over the ensuing 15 years as was the recipient of the 2005 NR Canada Outreach Program of the Year.

Rotary extends a big thank you to both President Ken and Ursula Morel.
