| Pay It Forward in Salt Lake City
 ASHRAE is launching a new program to provide technical and financial support for a sustainable project in the cities where Society meetings take place, leaving a legacy demonstrating the Society’s commitment to sustainability.
Beginning with the 2008 Annual Meeting in Salt Lake, the Utah Chapter is seeking donations from meeting attendees to go toward supporting a local green project or green enhancement to an existing project.
The chosen project for Salt Lake is installation of a solar domestic water heating system at the YWCA of Salt Lake City's Teen Home. The system would help reduce the annual operating costs of the facility and reduce the environmental impact of the current heating system. Click here to find out more about the program and how you can help make a difference or visit the Salt Lake host committee table at the meeting and pick up a Pay It Forward bracelet. Donations can be made on site. |
