Greener Together Program

Building A Greener Community, Together.

Support initiatives that help your community bloom.

OPPD’s Greener Together Program connects community members and supports green initiatives. As part of the program, you contribute monthly, and all funds collected go toward selecting and supporting green projects to positively impact our community.

Let your voice be heard.

As a member of the OPPD community, you can make a difference. Based on the amount you contribute to the Greener Together Program, you’ll have the opportunity to submit ideas and help identify which projects move forward.

It’s a program with the power to spark many diverse initiatives like bike paths, composting, tree planting and public park solar projects — and you can be an integral part of the effort for as little as $4.50 a month. Learn more about how the program works.

Choose a membership that works for you.

To make this program available to all members of the OPPD community, there are three distinct membership levels to choose from. The more you contribute each month, the more involvement you’ll have in each new project.

The silver membership is $4.50 - $6.50 a month. It includes program updates and you can vote on potential projects. The gold membership is $7.00 - $9.50 per month. It includes program updates, voting on potential projects and selecting winning projects. The emerald membership is $10+ per month. It includes program updates, voting on potential projects, selecting winning projects and greener together merchandise.
