Sustainability Board at the Holiday Fair

The Climate Action Subcommittee hosted a Succulent Planting event, planting Paperwhite Bulbs in reusable containers, promoting an eco-friendly way to brighten indoor spaces. All proceeds were donated to the New England Wind Fund, which empowers consumers and communities to accelerate a just transition to a zero-carbon world.

The Energy Subcommittee organized a Vegan Cookie Decorating activity, decorating cookies using plant-based ingredients while learning about the environmental benefits of choosing vegan options. Proceeds supported the Conservation Fund, which protects lands critical to climate solutions, sustainable economies, and vibrant communities.

The Natural Environment Subcommittee has been sharing trail camera photos of local wildlife and native plants on their Instagram account, @hopnat_en, and on-campus TVs in Upper Heath, Thompson, and Baldwin. These images aim to connect the community with the beauty of local ecosystems and inspire action to protect them. Be sure to check out the latest photos!
