A brief description of the institution’s sustainability projects fund:
The Green Fund accepts proposals from FSU students, staff, and faculty members. Projects must align with FSU Sustainability Strategic Plan goals and should result in high-impact experiences for the campus community. Funds can be used to support infrastructure development (on-campus only), research, and educational programming that take place at FSU or in the Tallahassee area. Applications are reviewed twice a year, once in the fall semester and once in the spring semester. There is no set award amount for Green Fund Project Grants. Historically, awards have ranged from under $100 to $5,000.
A brief description of the multi-stakeholder decision-making process used to determine which projects receive funding through the sustainability projects fund:
Green Fund grant proposals are reviewed by the Sustainable Campus staff and relevant campus partners. Proposals are evaluated based on the following considerations: 1) Contribution to FSU Sustainability Strategic Plan goals; 2) Enhancement of the campus experience; 3) Opportunity for experiential learning; 4) Long-term maintenance and oversight requirements; 5) Feasibility of implementation; and 6) Cost-effectiveness of budget.
