Video Contest
To celebrate 10 years of the Sustainable Jersey for Schools program, we’re launching a statewide Instagram video contest! Schools are invited to post a short (up to 60-second) video showcasing how a sustainability project or initiative has made an impact in their school or community. To enter, tag @Sustainable Jersey, use the #DecadeofImpact hashtag, and invite us as a collaborator on your post. The three videos with the most likes on Instagram before June 30 will receive sustainability grants to fund their school initiatives:
- First Place: $1,500
- Second Place: $750
- Third Place: $500
