I’m voting green because it’s the responsible thing to do!

- Marlene Barnes, Student-at-large

I'm voting green because I believe in funding opportunities for students to become more engaged in sustainability on campus. 

- Katherine Abdallah, SEA Club President

My name is Evonne Aguirre; I’m a student senator here at Everett Community College and I am in support the Green Fee Initiative. Every day I see my peers not only working hard at creating bright futures for themselves, but also are coming together in support of protecting our planet through continued efforts to keep EvCC eco-friendly. This student-led initiative reflects the care that we as students share for wanting to foster a healthy environment, and the Green Fee has the potential to help us reach our goals of creating a future for our planet that’s as promising as our students. I’m proud of what our students have accomplished so far, and I’m excited to see what new heights we can reach when we pass the EvCC Green Fee Initiative!

- Evonne Aguirre, ASB Senator

I’m supporting the green fee because I think that for the price of my breakfast from Starbucks once a quarter, promoting sustainable programs on my college campus is a no-brainer. Being a good steward of the Earth is something I think we should all want to do, and this has got to be the absolute easiest way to do it.

- Cameron Calder, ASB Senator & Social Justice and Current Events Coordinator

I support the Green Fee because great things start from small community. In this era of technology, we need more initiative to keep the Earth safe while working on new innovations, and i know this Green Fee is a good start!

- Zarith Sofiy Mohammad Azlan, ASB Senator & Student Ambassador

I support the Green Fee Initiative because I know that my small contribution will lead to a more sustainable campus, thus making a positive impact for generations to come. Together we can lead the way to a sustainable future by supporting this initiative.

- Emmerson Hunter, ASB Senator
