UA Green Fund

Allocated by a 10 member student committee, the UA Green Fund is intended to support projects that make the University of Arizona a more environmentally sustainable institution.

The UA Green Fund Committee has approximately $400,000 per year to allocate to projects through its Annual Grants and Mini-Grants programs. The Board of Regents approved the Green Fund for the first time as part of tuition and fees in March 2010.

University oversight of the Committee is provided through the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs. Committee procedures follow established University business procedures and policies.

The Proposals section of this site contains the complete history of all Green Fund projects, including original proposals, detailed progress reports, financial data and change requests. To learn more about currently funded projects—and the people and stories behind them—visit the UA's Environment and Sustainability Portal.
