Projects might be a wetland restoration in a neighborhood, an alternative energy project for a city, a home energy audit and remediation program in a low income neighborhood, creating a prototype from university research, clean energy projects for a school, more sustainable farming projects, or providing solar powered lighting in developing countries.
The goal is to drive more grassroots citizen awareness and engagement, while providing funding to a wide variety of projects that might not otherwise get the funds they need. In aggregate these projects can have a material impact on addressing climate change and help drive awareness and foster sustainable lifestyles. -
