The Ecology Club seeks to educate students about the importance of the environment for our survival, and teach preventative and preservative methods. The Ecology Club provides students with an opportunity to work together, instilling togetherness. “If we treat our environment with respect and care, it will in turn provide us with the care that we need,” is key in our survival. Our future depends on how we are able to preserve our environment so that the next generations can have something to look forward to.
 
The Ecology Club is also involved in a few community service events. The students give back to the community by participating in Earth Day events. The Ecology Club has also given back to the Florida Memorial University family. The student have gone around the campus and labeled a number of the trees planted throughout the campus. The students have also orchestrated a butterfly garden that is located behind the pool erecting a stone walkway with benches to sit on.
