As Earth Day approaches, it is a great time to recognize the individuals and organizations that are committed to making our planet a cleaner and healthier place to live. That’s why we are excited to announce the Green Task Force Earth Day Awards Event, which will take place on April 20, 2024.

The Green Task Force supports Detroit City Council and is dedicated to promoting sustainability and environmental stewardship through policy recommendations and advocacy. The Earth Day Awards Event is an opportunity to honor those who have made significant contributions to protecting the environment and creating a more sustainable future in the City of Detroit.

At the event, we will be recognizing individuals, businesses, and organizations in several categories, including:

Resident Awards: Individuals in the community that volunteer their time working towards sustainability.

Business Awards: Businesses that operate and/or are in Detroit that work towards sustainability and do great things for the community!

Community Leadership Award: Leader in the community who is dedicating their career and passion to the environment and the residents of Detroit.

Lifetime Achievement Award: An individual who, during their lifetime, has made significant contributions to advancing sustainability or environmental stewardship in Detroit.

Youth Awards: Individuals in the community aged 18 & younger who volunteer their time at school or in their neighborhood to care of the environment and champion sustainability. Nominees must reside in the city of Detroit.

We believe that this event will be of great interest to your audiences who are passionate about environmental issues and are looking for ways to get involved. We invite you to cover the Green Task Force Earth Day Awards Event and help us spread the word about the importance of sustainability and environmental stewardship through coverage of the event, announcement of the call for nominees, and joining us at the event on April 20, 2024.
