The University of Toronto's Department of Facilities and Services is pleased again to announce an exciting opportunity for students, staff and faculty to put their environmental ideas into action. The Sustainability Fund will promote the implementation of projects which achieve a reduction in utilities consumption resulting in greenhouse gas emission reductions. Because of the source of funds, only energy and resource conservation projects will be considered. While the Department of Facilities and Services has always taken strides to invest in sustainability projects on campus, this fund seeks to promote environmental leadership within U of T and to build on the ideas of campus community members.

Interested parties are invited to submit a Statement of Intent (SOI) to the fund which defines the scope of work. The overall application process will occur over two stages and approved SOIs will be invited to submit more detailed applications for the second round. Projects applying for fund monies will have to meet general criteria, and a Dean or Designate from the applicant's division must approve the SOIs before they are submitted. The deadline for submitting a Statement of Intent for the pilot funding round is February 15, 2010 at 5pm.

Please spread the word about the Sustainability Fund to your colleagues and peers.
