Hot Planet/Cool Athlete Grants

Purpose: Environmental advocacy group Protect Our Winters, in partnership with The North Face, is providing one-time grants to schools for student-led projects that "take serious action against climate change." Grants can be for projects related to recycling or composting, developing clean energy initiatives and other sustainability-related ideas. The key is that proposals must be developed and submitted by students. For inspiration, check out the list of past winners online.
