Prosperemos: Safe Haven -Work Order Funding

Project Description

This project, Prosperemos Safe Haven, would engage students and community members on and around campus in developing a sustainable mentality; through organizing and establishing social, cultural, and educational actions. With the re-usage of locally harvested lumber as well as the implementation of a green space for native pollinators in the project design, the project is an exemplary manner of embedding civic justice and sustainability. Students would be provided with a sustainable community space. 

This project will address the above-mentioned iCAP goals through the planting of our tree and the small garden which will surround the base of the gazebo. The garden surrounding the base of the gazebo will attract native pollinators to the area and help in the cycle of plant and animal diversity in our community. Additionally, wood that would otherwise be left to rot, used as mulch, or firewood will be utilized to craft a space that both students and community members will have access to. By providing this lumber to the Mill Shop this team is greatly reducing carbon footprint on campus.
