Since its launch\, the Community Climate Fund (CCF) has invested in 119 projects that mitigated 10\,882 lifetime tons of carbon and benefited nearly 1\,000 community members.  \n\n\n\n​This panel will explore CCF’s goals\, how it works\, who it helps\, and lessons learned. Case studies will help you deeply appreciate the real-world co-benefits of community-based climate solutions for institutions. The panel will conclude with a discussion of how this program could be replicated at other universities and other types of institutions that aspire to integrate their climate goals with community impact. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister now\n\n\n\n\n\nthe Speaker \n\n\n\n\nSara DraperMarket Evolution Manager – CET ​Sara Draper is the inaugural Market Evolution Manager at CET\, leading the implementation of pilot projects\, developing innovative service models\, and analyzing the impact of programs across CET’s portfolio.
