When you give to the Jean and Ric Edelman Fossil Park & Museum of Rowan University (EFM), you strengthen EFM's mission of being a catalyst for good through the power of understanding the past.
Field trips can inspire awe and enrich children's lives by taking them out of familiar surroundings and into new spaces. By connecting classroom learning with real-life experiences, students learn how they can make a difference in their own community.
Currently, more than 210 schools in New Jersey receive Title I funding, but their resources and time for teaching STEM subjects are limited. Even with EFM's discounts for schools and convenient location, teachers have shared that the number one barrier to field trips is funding for admission and transportation.
Making a gift to the EFM Education, Access & Opportunity Fund is an investment in making the museum accessible to more students by directly supporting Title I schools in taking field trips to Edelman Fossil Park & Museum.
DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT: Good friends of the Edelman Fossil Park & Museum, Rowan University Chairman Chad Bruner and former Manuta Township Economic Development Coordinator and Fossil Park liaison Michelle Bruner, are proud to commit a dollar-for-dollar Matching Challenge to support the Education, Access & Opportunity Fund. Every gift you make today will be matched up to $2,500—doubling your impact and expanding hands-on STEM learning, field trip access, and exclusive programming for students and families across our region. Join the Bruners in investing in awe and discovery for all.
