Truly Johnson
sustainability game day, energetic
truly johnson, alumni 2019
Truly worked on creating a Sustainable Game Day at Hunter College where students learned about environmental issues and carbon-neutral energy while playing board games. She was inspired to apply for this grant after working on Energetic, a board game about the NYC energy grid and became curious about how games could be used to educate and encourage action on important issues.
Haley Robinson
Lena Suponya
Recycling app
Haley Robinson, senior & Lena Suponya, Alumni 2017
This project was the brainchild of Haley’s creative collaborator, Lena Suponya. They decided to make this app to stimulate, engage, and educate the Hunter community about proper recycling habits. They saw a need to create this app and decided to apply for a grant from TGIF. Laws around recycling vary from city to city, and sometimes can be confusing. By creating the app the two wanted to teach the Hunter community the appropriate ways to recycle.
