Support your greening project

School ground greening is a very popular and widespread movement in Canada, and many grants exist for student-led projects.

Tips:

  • Let students lead the way. Encourage students to conduct the research, write the grants, and estimate budgets. Have a teacher or community member review the applications before submitting.
  • Research online or visit ontarioecoschools.org for a list of possible school ground greening grants. Pay close attention to deadlines and plan ahead.
  • Contact your local municipality for greening or tree-planting programs.
