The AETN Foundation exists solely to raise funds necessary to support the programs and services that AETN provides to Arkansans. AETN (www.aetn.org) provides lifelong learning opportunities, improves and enhances Arkansans' lives and celebrates the unique culture of Arkansas through its programming and services.
