Change is Simple works to further food system education
Change is Simple is a non profit organization dedicated to providing equitable climate and sustainability education to K-8 students across the Greater Boston area. For 14 years, Change is Simple has been transforming education across Massachusetts with dynamic, hands-on learning experiences. Originally established to teach environmental science and sustainability, Change is Simple has significantly expanded its mission, developing an effective framework for integrating STEAM (science, tech, engineering, arts and math) education into public schools while empowering students to take action to protect our planet.
The Change is Simple STEAM curriculum covers nearly every facet of climate change and environmental science, from pollination, oceans, and endangered species to plastic pollution, sustainable energy, and the food system.
This program is designed to work in any public school, where children of all racial, socioeconomic, religious, and gender identities are represented and included. We prioritize schools in under-resourced districts as they have historically lacked access to meaningful STEAM opportunities.
In the 2024-25 school year, Change is Simple is scheduled to educate 8,500+ students which includes Salem, Woburn, Revere, Beverly, and more! The funding for these programs comes from grants, donors, and foundations.
