The College Green Bowl will award three $3,000 grants to environmental projects created by college student groups and submitted online. Up to six finalists will be chosen for inclusion in the contest and facebook fans can vote on three winning projects. Submissions will be accepted through December 31st, and voting will commence on January 24th, 2010. Winning projects will be announced in February.

The College Green Bowl is a contest spearheaded by the Youth Connection, a collaborative effort of members of the Western New York Environmental Alliance (WNYEA). The Youth Connection exists to increase the number of young people participating in our regional environmental movement and to connect young environmental leaders to jobs and opportunities in WNY.
