Funding For Young Eco-Innovators

Last year I wrote a post announcing a funding/support opportunity for college students interested in starting some sort of (on-campus)environmentally/socially responsible venture.

Well, I received an e-mail yesterday from Michael Del Ponte, President and CEO of Conscious Lifestyle, letting me know that the opportunity was once again available.

Here is an info blurb he included in the e-mail:
