It is our privilege to develop minds, enrich lives, and create a brighter future for youth in the communities where we operate.
The Nuclear Energy Education Foundation (“NEEF”) provides youth with scholarships to follow their career goals within the nuclear energy sector. NEEF was established to empower students and young professionals in the United States (“U.S.”) to cultivate educational opportunities and careers. With an impressive amount of talent and experience, the NEEF team is looking forward to sharing their knowledge and expertise to provide the next generation with the skills they need to succeed in their career. It is NEEF’s privilege to develop minds, enrich lives, and create a brighter future for youth.
Education is a cornerstone of a thriving community. NEEF aims to fuel the future by creating opportunities for students and young professionals from elementary school to college and university, focusing on sustainable and transferable skills that benefit not just the nuclear energy and uranium extraction industry but the economy as a whole. NEEF seeks to provide, through financial support, internship and mentorship, the ability for students to pursue education and career development in relevant fields necessary to our sector and beyond.
Many opportunities are located in rural communities where job opportunities are often limited. Historically, these communities have been overlooked, even when there is a high demand for jobs. NEEF is committed to changing this narrative by providing educational tools and job opportunities within the communities, encouraging students to build strong career paths in various sectors.
