The Center for Sustainability at Aquinas College (C4S) coordinates programs that restore our environment, foster economic prosperity, and build vibrant and healthy communities. Established in 2005 as a community resource, the C4S is the leading facilitator and central node of the networked activities of the Aquinas Campus Sustainability Initiative.

Among its activities, the Center for Sustainability delivers sustainability education to the West Michigan community via lectures and conferences, and to Aquinas students, staff, and faculty via targeted workshops and speaker series. The C4S also coordinates major programs to build a culture for sustainability and develop sustainable life skills among students and employees. The most significant initiatives of the C4S include the zero-waste initiative, the urban forest initiative, and the community garden.
