How to become a sponsor?

Please contact Stephanie Strange for information on becoming a sponsor:Stephanie Strange305-348-1635 Stephanie.Strange@fiu.edu Why do the FIU Emerging Green Builders need your sponsorship?

Who are the FIU Emerging Green Builders?

The Emerging Green Builders is a USGBC program working to integrate students and young professionals into the green building movement. At Florida International University the current FIU EGB students are working to create a Student Government Organization through the Student Government Council. This assures that after the first EGB students graduate into their prospective professions the FIU EGB will be a “recognized” student organization” at the university. By doing so, the organization will be sustainable within the FIU infrastructure and can grow and develop along with the greening of the state and country.

If you are a FIU student interested in joining Emerging Green Builders or just a concerned citizen looking to get involved: contact Clayton Owens: clayton.owens@fiu.edu
