Our program is simple – we join forces with key partners whose values align with USGBC-IE’s to address the ongoing and continually evolving needs of the green building and sustainable communities marketplace.
Half (50%) of your generous contribution helps support the programs and events that will inform, educate, and provide networking and business development opportunities for you and your fellow USGBC members. In addition, we’ll provide you numerous avenues of recognition in the community as a sustainability leader. The other half of your contribution supports event attendance for your company at USGBC-IE throughout the year, including the following:
• Quarterly Membership Meetings
• Green Building Education Efforts: LEED Classes, Continuing Education, and much more!
And our focus on LIVE, LABOR & LEARN with our:
• Green RFP Workshop (March)
• Sustainable + Healthy Built Environment Forum (May)
• LEED for Homes and Energy Saving Homes (June)
• Green School Focus (September)
• 4th Annual Inland Empire Green Building + Business Expo (October)
• Annual Holiday Party at the Historic Mission Inn in Riverside (December)
and:
• Our pioneering Sustainable + Healthy Built Environment Initiative
The sooner you partner with us, the sooner you benefit from the exposure.

The USGBC-IE Partnership Program Process
HOW IT WORKS
The process is easy! For your Partnership Program contribution, we spend 50% to underwrite our events and programs and the USGBC Inland Empire Chapter will then allocate 50% of your Partnership Fund to a prepaid account for your company for event attendance within our Chapter. You will also be recognized during certain chapter focused events, programs, and educational efforts throughout the year depending on the level you choose. Increase your Partnership Program contribution throughout the year for even greater recognition to your company.
Contact us to discuss the details.
