greenerworks is a non-profit educational network that simply wants to support student projects related to science, community or the environment.
THE GOAL
The idea is to fund and support school/ community projects by the community, for the community. The makers of greenerworks hope that kind generosity from schools, individuals and corporates over time will contribute to a “pot” called the greenerworks Fund. All donors are sent e-newsletters on how the fund is being spent. Sophie (founder of greenerworks) also conducts presentations and regional programs to support the network. Students will then apply for funding/ support from the greenerworks Fund.
All supported projects will be published on this website as they are completed. We hope that this will take on a pace of its own because from experience with community and conservation efforts, we know that the most successful projects are when the local communities are empowered by themselves. If you have an interesting idea, please contact us and we will help you make your plans into reality.
We are committed to support small-scale projects in your school or local communities in Asia. Some examples below:
IDEA 1: Starting a new school magazine
-
Write to us This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it with a project proposal e.g. goals, mission & target audience of the magazine
-
Make a budget
-
Talk to your teacher (if you are a student, we need at least 1 teacher/ parent to act as a guardian of the project)
-
Email all materials e.g. documents, photos (if any), graphics, art work to us here
-
Let us do the rest – we can help you for example with a graphic template for your school magazine and any email support to help you make this happen
IDEA 2: Organising a school excursion/ field trip
-

Let us do the rest – e.g. put you in-contact with an organisation/ group to help you organise the field trip while you take care of school logistics
IDEA 3: Building a website for your community/ project idea
- Got an idea that needs a website to spread the message?
- Write to us This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it with what you have in-mind
- Design the aim and basic structure of the website first, don’t worry we will help you to refine it
- If you do not have a budget, we’ll show you where to download free templates to build it on your own
- If you have a budget, we will build the website for you at a fraction of what most professional website boutique/ advertising houses will charge you … because we do not want financing to become an obstacle for you to make your idea a reality. Seriously!
