GreenCR Champions work hard to bring that passion to wherever they are--school, work, at home or outdoors.
If you know a person or group who goes above and beyond to promote environmental stewardship – a teacher, student, employee, or association – nominate them for the GreenCR Champion Award at EcoFestCR.org/Award.Date:03/28/2024
