The Strauss Foundation, based in Costa Mesa, CA, is a prestigious scholarship organization that awards $15,000 to young leaders from 23 pre-selected California colleges and universities. Their mission is to encourage these students to undertake high-impact projects in public service or social change during their junior or senior year, fostering a new generation of change-makers.
One notable project supported by the Strauss Foundation is Environmental Education for the Next Generation (EENG), which was developed by a former scholar and expanded to multiple campuses. This non-profit organization, now known as Sprout Up, provides curriculum and online courses to elementary school students, reaching over 6000 students and inspiring them to think differently about their world through activities, experiments, and discussions.
