Metro's Green Apple School Program is back for a third year
Metro launched in September 2009 its Metro Green Apple School Program, an environmental initiative designed to encourage elementary and secondary schools to participate in conservation and healthy living. By investing up to $1 million in each province into the program, Metro provides $1,000 grants to Quebec and Ontario schools that can demonstrate how their proposals will positively impact their school or community.
Since its inception in 2009, Metro’s Green Apple School Program has enabled the completion of thousands of green projects in schools across Quebec and Ontario. Over the years, a wide variety of projects have been submitted, from earthworm composting to recycling, to tree planting and gardening.
All public and private elementary and high schools in Quebec and
Ontario are eligible for a Green Apple School Program grant.
Applications received earlier will have a better chance of being
selected, based on the first-come-first-served principle. Register
your school now by going to www.greenapplegrants.ca.
The deadline for submissions is December 30, 2011.
