Join the Office of Sustainability for a mini-series of professional networking opportunities with our Career Coffee Chats. These small, informal conversations in the Office of Sustainability will connect accomplished alumni working in sustainability-related careers with students interested in pursuing a similar career path. These career-focused conversations will allow students to ask questions and gain advice on pursuing and navigating a career in sustainability.

This week, we are excited to host Tim Bennett, FOX '05, Founder and CEO of Bennett Compost. A native of Rochester, NY, Tim graduated from the Fox School of Business at Temple University in 2005 with a Bachelors of Business Administration. He founded Bennett Compost with $100 and a desire to see composting easier for Philadelphians. Today, Bennett Compost operates the largest curbside composting program in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania, serving over 6000 households and 100 businesses every week, employing 25 people and keeping over 4 million tons of food waste out of landfills every year.
