Dear MIT:

The 2017 MIT Earth Day Collective is pleased to announce funding for the MIT Community <https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/J5KRYNQ> to develop fun, innovative & interactive campus projects promoting sustainability and climate action this April surrounding Earth Day 2017 (April 22, 2017). Applications are due: April 9, 2017. Please see attached poster and help us spread the word!

Announcing this year’s MIT Earth Day Mini Grant Program:

The Earth Day Mini Grant Program seek to encourage student, staff, and faculty teams to develop creative projects on campus that harness their scientific, social, artistic, and technological problem-solving skills. We are looking for projects that promote climate action, environmental health, resource-efficiency, sustainable behavior and more. Projects don’t need to occur on Earth Day to be eligible.

Ideas might include: workshops, speaker events, interactive projects, installations, experiments, etc. Furniture restoration workshops, Shut the Sash campaigns, waste awareness booths – these have all been past winners, and we are excited to see what this year brings.

To apply for project funding (up to $500 per team), click here<https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/J5KRYNQ>. Applications are due by midnight on Sunday, April 9, 2017.

Application Link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/J5KRYNQ



This grant program is made possible by the generous support of the 2017 MIT Earth Day Collective:
Sloan Sustainability Initiative, MindHandHeart, MIT Recycling and Materials Management, MIT Medical, the Environmental Solutions Initiative, MIT Department of Urban Studies and Planning, the Campus Activities Complex and the MIT Office of Sustainability.
