Beekeeping Club
The Beekeeping Club was established by students in 2014 thanks to a SIG grant. The club raises awareness about the important role honeybees play in the environment and to promote sustainability.
Eco-House Community Garden
The Sustainable Initiative Grant facilitated the purchase of seeds, plants, and materials to create organic, raised garden beds at the Eco-House to teach residents about sustainable food production and organic gardening.
Lehigh Heritage Park
The Sustainable Initiative Grant funded a Technical Entrepreneurship class to determine how to use the Lehigh historic property and turn it into a park. This property is unique because the pumping engine is the only structure of its kind in the US.
The Sustainable Initiative Grant provides one-time grants of up to $2,000 to students, faculty, and staff to facilitate green pilot projects.
