Thanks SPF for supporting the Museum!

Published: 30 August 2020

This summer the Â鶹AV Sustainability Projects Fund (SPF) turned ten years old and it marked the occasion by giving the 130 year old Redpath Museum some funding help. Thanks SPFÌýfor subsidizing our new outreach project to create a "Museum in a Box" and for help to buy photography equipment so that we could create virtual StoryMap tours such as the Â鶹AV Tree Tour and the Â鶹AV Stones and fossils tour.

Check here for the launch of both these virtual tours for Homecoming Â鶹AV at the end of September.ÌýÌý

About the SPF: The Sustainability Projects Fund mandate is to build a culture of sustainability on Â鶹AV campuses through the development and seed-funding of interdisciplinary projects. It creates opportunities for the Â鶹AV community to actively engage in sustainability initiatives on campus, empowering individuals to be change agents in their own studying and work environment. Since 2010, there has been $10 million allocated plus, 250 projects funded and 86% were student-staff collaborations.
