The Empower Poly Coalition is a student-run organization that unites the efforts of over 25 clubs interested in the sustainability movement, ranging from renewable energy, bio-diesel, and local, organic food to global projects, fair trade, and social justice. We have gained the support of Cal Poly faculty and administration. We are continuing to work towards becoming a powerful resource for the community.
