The Green Fund, which is administered by the UW–Madison Office of Sustainability, supports student-initiated projects that address the environmental footprint, social impact, and operating costs of campus facilities to bring about long-standing, impactful change.
Green Fund projects give students the chance to collaborate with staff, faculty, and other students to build skills and experiences that prepare them for the professional world. Participants might find themselves meeting on a rooftop to assess the potential for rainwater harvesting, or running greenhouse gas emissions savings calculations, or filming videos to tell the story.
With increased awareness of the climate crisis, the Green Fund has seen more funding requests from students than it has capacity to support. Your gift empowers students to implement exciting projects on the campus that they call home. By giving to the Green Fund, you can help UW–Madison tap into the creativity of our student body to demonstrate solutions for a more just and sustainable world. Thank you!
