Today we are launching the Wright-Ingraham Institute’s Scholarship Campaign to support the 2026 Field Workshop, our flagship program training the next generation of environmental leaders.
We need to raise $30,000 by December 31 to ensure program costs aren’t a barrier for participants in this transformative three-week fellowship along the Rio Grande.
Field Workshop brings together early-career scientists, designers, artists, and community leaders to work directly with farmers, ranchers, and water managers in the San Luis Valley and northern New Mexico. Fellows learn to collaborate across disciplines, understand the pressures communities face, and co-design practical strategies rooted in place.
Throughout the campaign, we will be celebrating the impact our alumni have made on the landscapes that sustain us all. Because the impact is clear: this program changes lives… and it changes systems.
Alumni have gone on to:
- Write federal groundwater standards
- Lead regenerative land-management programs
- Develop sustainable building materials and infrastructure
- Reimagine wastewater and public-health systems
Your contribution today helps make this possible.
Every gift of any size brings us closer to funding 16 fellows for 2026.
