Fall 2019 Water Campaign Waitlist

Thank you for your interest in our Fall 2019 Water Campaign! The Water Campaign will be a semester-long, virtual program focused on water conservation and water quality that will launch in September 2019 and culminate in early December 2019. Campaigns are created for teams of 5+ students ages 11-18 with at least one adult lead to supervise. Campaign Teams of students can come from schools, after-school clubs, community groups, and more. Each Campaign Team is paired with a Grades of Green Mentor to help them implement an environmental solution in their community, create a short video about their solution, and present their solution to school or community leaders. Student solutions and videos will be scored by a panel of environmental expert judges, and the winning teams will receive Eco- Grants to fund their solution.

Please fill out the information below to add your name to the Campaign Wait List. Grades of Green will be in touch in June 2019 with more information about the Campaign.

Water Earth Tips

Grade of Green’s Water Earth Tips provides your school with a library of environmental tips you can us to spread awareness and inspire and educate your school community about ways to care for the environment by conserving water or protecting water quality. You can publish these Water Earth Tips in your school’s e-newsletters, say them over morning announcements, or add them to bulletin boards. Because it requires a minimal time commitment, it is a great starter Grades of Green Activity! Additionally, if you’re looking to take water conservation to the next level, this is a great Activity to layer on to existing water-related Grades of Green Activities.

Water Refill Station

Introducing a water refill station at your school is a great way to encourage students to bring reusable water bottles every day and to reduce plastic waste. A water refill station is a place on campus where students can refill their water bottle with drinking water. Installing a water refill station makes it easy for students to bring reusable bottles to school, and to make sure everyone has access to fresh, clean drinking water every day. This Activity can be done by installing a water refill station in lieu of a water fountain or by simply refilling a jug of water at lunchtime or during after school activities when a water foundation is not close.
