Community Impact Fund – in support of Environment & Sustainability
The Community Impact Fund was established as an endowment to provide annual granting in support of the PEI community’s most pressing needs and priorities now and in the future. On an annual basis, the CFPEI Board of Directors determines the most pressing needs and priorities for the use of the annual granting capacity.
ENVIRONMENT & SUSTAINABILITY
The focus of the 2023 Community Impact Fund will be in support of Environment & Sustainability. Specifically, the 2023 granting will support projects/programs which encourage individuals to change their attitudes, lifestyles and actions to collectively minimize environmental impact and to build sustainable practices. Environmental and sustainable projects/programs include, but are not limited to, those that address climate change and its impacts; promote a circular economy, and/or utilize commercial agriculture adaptation strategies. Develop your best ideas to help our environment and create sustainability!
The fund is currently estimated to grant $25,000 back our Island communities, in the form of multiple micro-grants up to $5,000 per recipient organization.
Organizations are invited to apply to the Community Impact Fund in support of Environment and Sustainability, and other CFPEI Community Grants by visiting our Community Grant Application Portal. Applications are accepted online only.
