DescriptionThe Foundation’s fourth annual We Can Change the World Challenge invites students to team up with classmates under teachers/mentors to solve environmental problems in their school (grades K-5); community (grades 6-8); and world (grades 9-12).

The Challenge offers students at the elementary level the opportunity to use science, math, and reading/language arts concepts and skills to create sustainable, reproducible environmental improvements. At the middle school and high school levels, the Challenge gives students the opportunity, tools, and inspiration to make a difference and become agents of change. Prizes vary according to grade level and value more than $250,000 total.
