We are thrilled to announce that Cafeteria Culture was selected as a winner of the inaugural UL Innovative Education Award!  As a tier 2 winner, we received a $50,000 ward from  UL (Underwriters Laboratories) and NAAEE (North America Association for Environmental Education) to expand our ARTS+ACTION Program!!! We'll get to work closely with the incredible UL team and fellow grantees to make an even bigger impact in NYC schools and beyond!! 

A HUGE THANK YOU to UL and NAAEE!
The UL Innovative Education Award (ULIEA) is the first-of-its-kind initiative designed to invest in environmental and STEM education, sustainable communities, and youth empowerment and was open to nonprofit organizations in the U.S. and Canada that serve to motivate K-12 students. Read more about the five winning organizations here ->. 
 
We could not have won this award without the support of our amazing partners and supporters!
