The Green Initiative Fund (TGIF)

The Green Initiative Fund (TGIF) is a grant-making fund for sustainability projects on UC Berkeley's campus. About $250,000 per year are available for grants; students, faculty, and staff are eligible to submit project proposals. Projects will be selected for funding by an annually appointed Grant Making Committee consisting of students, faculty, and staff, in which students have the majority vote.

TGIF is funded by a $5 per semester student fee, beginning in fall 2007 and persisting for 10 years. The fee referendum was approved by the student body during the April 2007 ASUC elections. It received final approval by the Chancellor and Regents during the summer of 2007.
