The Green Schools Alliance (GSA) is a non-profit organization created by schools for schools, working with and through pre-K to grade 12 schools worldwide to meet their energy and sustainability goals, raise environmental awareness, and empower students, as well as faculty and staff. Founded in 2007, GSA membership includes nearly 2,000 public and private schools in 37 states and 10 countries, including the entire New York City Department of Education public school system - which joined GSA in April 2009.[1][2][3]
The GSA is a program of GEO: Global Environmental Options, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that was founded in 1994 as an outgrowth of the “Greening of the White House” initiative[4], the first major gathering of the green building community around one project.
