RE:  Reminder: The Green Initiative Fund Spring Fast Track Application Deadline, April 11th, 2025      

The Green Initiative Fund (TGIF) is now accepting applications for Fast Track Funding (request under $2000) -  Due April 11th, 2025

TGIF is a student-governed grant supported by a $3.47 lock-in fee that every UCSB undergraduate and graduate student pays each quarter.  It raises over $170,000 per year to fund projects that reduce UCSB’s impact on the environment.  Any UCSB student, staff, or faculty member is eligible to apply for funding for their projects.  Ideal projects will show a quantifiable change (energy, waste, water reduction, etc.) while also educating the campus community.

If you have questions about your project idea, proposal guidelines or the selection process, please contact Jewel Persad at 893-8367 or Jewelpersad@ucsb.edu

For more information on previously funded projects or to submit an application, please visit the TGIF web site: https://sustainability.ucsb.edu/tgif/apply-for-a-grant

Sincerely,
The TGIF Grants Committee
