The Student Sustainability Committee is a group of 12 students dedicated to improving sustainability at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. With the help of 10 faculty and staff that serve as member-advisors, we meet to review and vote on what projects receive funding and check in on those projects that have already received funding. Using two student fees, the Sustainable Campus Environment Fee and the Cleaner Energy Technologies Fee, we review submitted projects and distribute funding to projects that we deem to be most beneficial to the University of Illinois. Both of these student fees bring in over $1.1 million annually, which is one of the largest sustainability fund of its kind in the United States.

The Student Organization Resource Fund was established in 1978 to support programs and activities for Registered Student Organizations, in order to create exciting experiences for students on campus. The funding board is compromised of elected students and appointed staff who are responsible for allocating the money according to our policies. We are proud to sponsor Illini Solar Car because their mission promotes values that benefit the University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign community.
