 Support GeoFORCE: Our Sponsors
GeoFORCE Texas would not exist without the strong support of its sponsors: Shell Oil Company, Marathon Oil Company, Texas Workforce Commission, ExxonMobil, BP, ConocoPhillips, Chevron, Halliburton, Texas High School Project Fund of Communities Foundation of Texas, Vulcan Materials Foundation, Devon, Valero Energy Corporation, and American Electric Power. In addition, GeoFORCE receives contributions from the GDL Foundation and Bill and Marilee Fisher. Our sponsors not only provide financial assistance; they have also provided valuable operational suggestions and have participated in academy events. As the program expands toward its ambitious goal of engaging over 600 students each year, additional financial support will be required. There must be an identified and worthy return on investment for our sponsors. It is the intent of GeoFORCE Texas to increase the number and quality of future geoscientists as well as to provide widespread acknowledgement of all sponsors. It will take time to determine if we are fulfilling the goal of increasing the numbers, but the visibility of GeoFORCE Texas and its sponsors is clearly evident from the enthusiastic support from students, parents, teachers, and community leaders. |
