CLIMATE SAVERS GRANT 3
Every day, young people across the world engage in planet-saving activities, as a solution to the climate crisis currently facing the world. Their efforts are usually community-focused over time, and the initiatives that follow have saved people, increased agricultural outputs, conserved threatened species, sustained water resources, and even created employment opportunities for rural communities. Climate Savers Grant is a $750 grant for three "Climate Savers" working on solutions for the climate crisis, from waste management to climate action advocacy, or even conservation. Apply, and let's take action to save our planet!
