Green Valley Initiative

Vision of Sustainable Living

A movement is underway to transform Riverside and San Bernardino counties into a place where sustainable economic development and quality of life go hand-in-hand.

This effort will bring green technologies and sustainable practices to the Inland Empire while reducing the region’s long commutes, under-utilized resources and non-cohesive business and land-use practices.

This movement is known as the Green Valley Initiative, a plan that integrates social, economic and environmental forces to bring new jobs, greater opportunities and a higher quality of life to the region.

GIVE is coming to a campus near you!

We’re busy founding student organizations so that we can help empower students and assist universities with their existing “Greening” efforts.

Our mission is simple:

Mission Statement: To foster working relationships between students of varied disciplines, professors, businesses, and government at all levels to raise awareness and promote the advancement of sustainability.

The result will be innovation and empowerment. Our members are stepping up as leaders within their disciplines, while cooperating as a team across all branches of learning. When this environment of social entrepreneurship is focused on creating a sustainable present and future, the possibilities are limitless.
