College Foundation

We’re a passionate team of alumni, community leaders, and advocates working together to support the mission of SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry. We believe in the power of environmental stewardship to shape a better world — for today and for generations to come.

By fueling innovation, education, and research at ESF, we help ensure the College has the resources it needs to lead in sustainability, natural resource management, and environmental solutions. Our vision is bold: to empower ESF to dream big and grow without limits.

Together, we’re turning mission into momentum.

Our Impact

The ESF College Foundation plays a vital role in the success of the College and its students — supporting everything from scholarships that make an ESF education possible to research that’s shaping a more sustainable world.
