Now Happening

2020 Annual Report

In this unprecedented year, we have found resilience in the power of nature and the outdoors, the incredible wave of community kindness and support, and the centering of our work at Sustain Dane on the intersection of environmental, racial, and economic justice. Together we are creating pathways to thoughtfully review long-standing systems and prioritize an innovative and holistic approach to sustainability. Sustain Dane is growing a healthier and more equitable community that will thrive for future generations.

More people, organizations, and businesses are partnering with us for education and connection, working to advance a sustainable future. We’ve provided education and connection at the Accelerate Sustainability Workshops, Sustainable Breakfast Series, and Green Team Roundtable conversations. This year we launched a collaborative program to preserve affordable housing while enhancing resident health and comfort, reduce utility bills, and promote climate resiliency. We also expanded the Sustainability Stories platform to amplify voices from different backgrounds, races, ages, genders, and geographies that encourage others to build a more sustainable and inclusive community.
