Projects form the backbone of KELP's incredible initiatives, encouraging students to step into leadership and make significant change in their communities. Most groups maintain 1 or 2 committed long-term projects, and work on several smaller event projects throughout the year. Students may also propose projects independently of their group.
Here is a library of all ongoing projects as well as some past outstanding ones from over the years. Projects are listed by recency and are sorted by group, including past groups that did not run this year.
