Supporting Sustainable Quaker Schools within PYM

We seek to lift up the great potential of Friends schools to model a commitment to stewardship and equality. Learn how our schools are doing in the summary of the first Friends Schools Sustainability Survey: http://friendscouncil.org/Library/InfoManage/Guide.asp?FolderID=626

We seek to support Quaker Schools through programs and materials that focus on best practices in the areas of  energy efficiency,  options for purchasing renewable electricity and the process for considering and funding the generation of local renewable energy.

A report from our conference: Sustainability Starts With Us Now held in October 2015 at Delaware Valley Friends School can be found here: http://friendscouncil.org/Library/InfoManage/Guide.asp?FolderID=626

Did you attend a Friends School and want to support their transition to a carbon neutral campus? Contact us: nextgenconference@gmail.com

What is a Collaborative?

Collaboratives are networks of individual Quakers who work jointly on common interests specific to themselves. Collaborative work, witness, and activity are distinct from corporate ministry of Philadelphia Yearly Meeting.

Though many individual Quakers join together in addressing social concerns, Quakerism is a faith of continuing revelation and PYM is a ‘big tent’ with many opinions.
