Powering innovative sustainable community projects across North America!

In 2023, we proudly rolled out our Community Sustainability Fund (CSF), empowering the communities where we live and work to achieve their climate action goals with grants up to $20,000. We received 80 requests for funding from organizations across North America, totaling nearly $1.5 million! Because of this outpouring of interest, we increased our original $200,000 budget to $300,000 to support more grassroots projects in our communities!
