Join the Consumer Energy Education Foundation as we successfully engage and motivate students, educators and the greater STEM community in the areas of science, technology, engineering and math in low to moderate income areas in Colorado. We believe STEM professionals should reflect U.S. diversity.
"We are the energy capital of the world here in Houston. If you want to work in the energy sector, STEM is the answer. We have to showcase STEM to students and they get it and they are excited about it."- City of Houston Mayor, Sylvester Turner
"It brings together companies, universities and other organizations that are interested in STEM and energy. CEEF teaches students about how we generate energy, how we use energy and also the laws of energy." Dr. Rene Bellwied, University of Houston, MD Anderson Chair Professor

CEEF is a national non-profit organization focused on developing educational support materials, activities, resources, and information about career opportunities in energy and STEAM fields. CEEF works with businesses, schools and community organizations to engage in and support activities and programs that motivate, inspire, and improve students' understanding of the various career opportunities that are available to them if they follow a STEAM path.
In 2010, with more people retiring from the STEM and energy industries, and the need for more advanced technology, it was clear that there was a critical need to bridge the gap between education, career adoption, and the STEAM and energy industries. It was then that was created. The Consumer Energy Education Foundation teaches educators, students and their families about the various forms of energy and science, technology, engineering and mathematics concepts that go into energy and STEM careers.
CEEF works with its partner network to teach and explore the various energy types and opportunities in STEM ecosystems. Students and teachers are also awarded each year for their achievements in STEM-related competitions. In the seven years since its inception, Energy Day has given away almost $100,000 to students and teachers for their achievements in STEM.
