School Environmental Initiatives

AVI proudly supports student-led sustainability with programs that make a real impact. From fundraising through our Bottle and Can drive, to funding green campus projects through the Green Schools Program, we’re helping schools turn environmental education into action.

Plus, find additional tools and inspiration through the StopWaste at School program.

AVI partners with Dublin schools to provide opportunities for environmental learning and leadership.

Our Bottle and Can Fundraiser is a fun way for students to raise money while recycling, and our Go Green Initiative grants support eco-projects on campus.
Amador Valley Industries Green Schools Program

Green Schools Program

In 2005, AVI created a partnership with The Go Green Initiative, creating a grant program to help Dublin’s public schools fund projects (e.g. recycling, water conservation, school gardens, etc.) that improve students’ lives and help teach them to be responsible stewards of our environment.

AVI continues to provide assistance to schools that continue to show their commitment to waste reduction and proper sorting of recyclable and compostable materials. Campuses measure their progress towards their environmental goals and then briefly summarize their accomplishments. The results are then reviewed by the City of Dublin program administrator. Qualifying Dublin schools can receive hundreds of dollars per quarter for environmentally-related projects.

Many Dublin public schools are currently participating in the program and reaping the rewards. For more information about Dublin's Green Schools Program, contact AVI.

You can also contact the City of Dublin at 925-833-6630 if you have questions about the program.
