The Monongahela Group

The Monongahela (“Mon”) Group of the West Virginia Chapter of the Sierra Club includes members from five counties – Harrison, Marion, Monongalia, Preston, and Taylor. We work to increase awareness of environmental issues and opportunities for active participation in our area. This could involve helping with an event or group function, holding volunteer office, joining and leading outings, or becoming an activist and lobbying for change. We welcome everyone with an interest in the environment. Go to our website for more.

The WVU Sierra Student Coalition

The WVU Sierra Student Coalition (SSC) aims to protect the environment through sharing our knowledge on legislation, proposed projects, and activism opportunities. Activities include writing to our representatives, protesting, and informational campaigns across campus. SSC is a very active organization in other aspects as well: We can be found on our websiteTwitterFacebook, and, of course, outside! Outings are planned and organized during weekly meetings and can vary from trips to the state Capitol, an environmental conference such as Power Shift, or a hike at Cooper’s Rock. We are an official branch of the National Sierra Student Coalition and are affiliated with the Sierra Club. We actively participate in activities sponsored by our parent organization and often share educational materials provided by the group.
