The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) has selected The Kresge Foundation for its 2005 Leadership Award. The award recognizes outstanding individuals and organizations providing “vision, leadership and commitment to the evolution of green building design and construction.”


“There is a growing enthusiasm among nonprofits of all types to build and operate in sustainable ways,” says Kresge Foundation Senior Vice President Elizabeth Sullivan. “We hope this award calls attention to their achievement and encourages others to consider green options.”


The award, given to The Kresge Foundation in the category of Community, acknowledges the Foundation’s green building leadership and program initiatives including a national program which provides educational materials and funding for nonprofit organizations to plan and design green buildings."
