Sacramento Splash is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping local children understand and value their natural world through scientific investigation and outdoor exploration. We believe that all children deserve the opportunity to learn and play in nature. We offer a variety of environmental science programs designed to introduce Sacramento area kids to the wonders of science by teaching them about local habitats. Whether you are a teacher looking to make science relevant for your students or a parent looking for a fun weekend activity, Splash has lots to offer!

Change the world

Never doubt that a small group of committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.

- Margaret Mead

Get involved

The cure for despair is not hope; it’s discovering what we want to do about something we care about.
