UNITED
EARTH FOUNDATION
Visitors
to EVE's Earth Station Attraction , will also feel a sense of empowerment,
knowing that portions of their entrance fees and retail purchase prices
will be donated directly to the United Earth Foundation (UEF) to distribute
to the not-for-profit environmental and humanitarian groups participating
with ESA as sponsors. A portion of visitor fees will therefore, go directly
to benefit our environment. Visitors will also know that ESA participates
directly in a variety of projects that benefit the environment and man's
relationship with nature. These projects will include:
1) Work in affiliation with ESA's UEF to coordinate activities of national
and international environmental organizations, acting as a "United
Nations" for environmental awareness.
2) National and international seminars and symposiums on environmental
issues through affiliation with the United Earth Foundation.
3) Children/school environmental educational seminars and school tours
or field trips.
4) Research and development endeavors through an arm of ESA, working
in cooperation with national and international colleges, agencies, and
organizations.
5) sponsorship of world-wide environmental and philanthropic events
The UEF will have either a corporate or contractual relationship with
EVE to act as its coordinator of non-profit activities. As a not-for-profit
corporation, UEF will have a separate Board of Directors recruited from
outside of EVE. These individuals will be drawn from:
- Environmental groups
- Federal agencies
- Corporations
- Entertainment industry film and music industry stars
- Distinguished colleges and research centers
- Respected individuals in the environmental community
- School age child to represent the children of the world
