Do you have an idea for creating a more sustainable Bend? We would like to $upport you while you test it out!

There are two $1800 grants available for COCC students to work on an environmental stewardship/sustainability project. These are available for full-time COCC students in the 2015/16 academic year. You will be required to work approximately 180 hours throughout the year and report on your work in writing. To see ideas of what students have done with similar grants at Santa Clara University, go to Environmental Ethics Fellowship.

John and Joan Casey generously fund these grants.
