What Missouri Environmental Education Association does
Mission
Developing an environmentally responsible citizenry in Missouri through environmental education.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
Show-Me Green Schools (SMGS) - the SMGS program supports any Missouri preK-12 school to decrease environmental impact, improve student and staff health, and providing outdoor and nature-based education. MEEA also recognizes schools for their achievements over time. This is a collaborative effort between MEEA and Missouri Gateway Green Building Council and together we supported approximately 130 schools in 2025, impacting more than 42,250 students and staff.

In 2025, 95 environmental educators attended the conference, held at the Runge Nature Center in Jefferson City. 28% of attendees utilized the Pay-What-You-Can ticket option, ranging from payment of 0% to 75% of the ticket price.

These services range from online, asynchronous courses ("eeCourses") and in-person workshops, to a newsletter, website and webinars, to mini-grants for MEEA members and stipended projects available to Young Environmental Leaders (YEL) members ages 16-26. In 2025, MEEA's eeCourse catalog expanded to 5 available courses. Three courses were offered in 2025 and were attended by 21 nonformal educators, impacting over 10,500 learners. MEEA's Young Environmental Leader (YEL) membership grew to 30 members in 2025, and MEEA provided 6 of them with resume-building, stipended projects valued at $15/hour. Also in 2025, MEEA, in collaboration with 5 other State Affiliates of the North American Association for Environmental Education, completed and shared findings of an EE "landscape analysis", illuminating barriers and gaps in providing EE in schools and communities in Missouri.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $115k to $68k (−41%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income rose $500 → $7k.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
85% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund MISSOURI ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION ASSOCIATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2023 92% — diversifying over time.
