Program offerings

The Green Building Grant Program will consider funding projects, which focus on:

  • Education to increase the understanding and use of practical green building strategies
Applicants are required to include an educational component that encourages green building initiatives by sharing the benefits of their project with the public and other practitioners. We encourage partnerships between organizations (government, business and not-for-profit) that enhance cooperation, improve the effectiveness of projects and enable further green building development.
