The Bryn Mawr College Sustainability Office offers internal grants to support the community in advancing sustainability initiatives on campus. This opportunity is intended to provide small “seed” grants for faculty, staff, or student-led projects that move the College forward in our sustainability goals and/or inspire a greater culture shift in recognition of climate change and the need to engage in action. Grants are provided for projects that may address a wide range of climate- and sustainability-related topics that impact our campus, such as better integrating sustainability in the academic curriculum, sustainability research and scholarship, waste reduction and diversion, renewable energy and energy conservation, building standards, environmental justice, efficient technology, promotion of new sustainable practices, sustainable procurement, and sustainable food sourcing. Preference will be given to projects that help improve our sustainability performance in one or more areas as measured by the Sustainability Tracking, Assessment, and Rating System (STARS). Grant funding is currently available for Spring 2027. Any member of the campus community may apply for a grant. Employees must have permission from supervisors to allocate staff time towards a grant funded project. Please visit the link for details on past awardees and how to apply. Grant awardees will be announced on December 4, 2026.
