SERC and TGIF Eco Fund

Thank you for your interest in TGIF + SERC’s Eco Fund. This Spring, we are accepting funding requests from 2/5/2024 – 4/21/2024

We award small stipends to students leading projects that incorporate environmentalism, sustainability, and/or environmental justice in their events. These stipends can cover the cost of food, venue fees, books/materials, travel costs, and speaker stipends. The Eco Fund also awards stipends to students that are enrolled in environmental courses and need support accessing course materials (including but not limited to textbooks, calculators, software, etc.).

Since 2021, the Eco Fund has dispersed $17,625 to 68 students and student leaders for requests covering costs ranging from a bag of soil, music fundraising festivals, binoculars, to textbooks. Please note, we have a soft cap of $300 for requests. Applications will be reviewed biweekly at 12 PM every other Friday starting September 22nd. We aim to notify applicants of their application status within 2 weeks of submission.

TO APPLY: Fill out our google form application. All instructions and details are listed on the form. (Due to institutional delays, funding will take around 4-6 weeks to reach you after your application is submitted.)

If you have any questions about the Eco Fund, please email serc@berkeley.edu.
