2020 GOMESA FUNDING AWARDED TO INFINITY
INFINITY Science Center was awarded $1 million for the Assessment Restoration and Stewardship of INIFINTY Land Holdings.
This project is focused on landscape-scale ecosystem restoration on the highly visible land surrounding the INFINITY Science Center––located adjacent to, and complimentary to the goals of, MDMR's Coast Preserves. Part of the project is to control invasive species in marsh land areas. Additionally, a robust educational program will be added that raises awareness of the importance of the health of our natural systems to our quality of life on the Gulf Coast.
The research project will involve completing a toxicology of the water and soil to get a baseline reading. It will also involve removing invasive plants and planting native species to see how the new plants are filtering out the toxins and heavy metals.
In addition, INFINITY will use the funds to construct an outdoor classroom to host classes and professional development events.
INFINITY HERITAGE SOCIETY
Helen Keller instructs us about the power of one. No non-profit museum or science center covers their annual costs by ticket sales alone. Please consider exercising your power of one to “do something” positive for the future of our youth by supporting the INFINITY Science Center and joining the Heritage Society.
For more information on how you can become a part of INFINITY’s goal to increase science literacy in Louisiana and Mississippi, contact Jill Senn at [email protected].
If you wish, you can specify how INFINITY should use your gift. You may wish to underwrite school field trips or teacher professional development, bring in special events, make capital improvements, add or enhance exhibits, or cover lunches for underprivileged groups. Perhaps you’d like to help enhance the Possum Walk Trail, endow an educator chair, or sponsor a classroom?
