Tools for Schools

We're here to help

Green Calgary wants to help empower schools to set up idle free zones. We will provide schools with packs of 25 decal to sell as a fundraiser to students, parents, staff and the community. For each pack of 25 sold ($50 raised), Green Calgary will provide the school with a metal Idle Free zone sign to display in school property. Please contact us at idlefree@greencalgary.org for details or to get started.

If you don't need help with fundraising and just want to buy the idle free zone signs, they can be picked up in the EcoStore anytime for $50.00.

Why go Idle Free?
Inform yourself on how idling affects your health, and your environment. Also learn about idling initiatives in other areas.
