In what has become a global tradition, April 22 will mark the celebration of Earth Day around the world. To help mark this occasion, Kosciusko REMC will celebrate Earth Day by offering EnviroWatts grants to area non-profit organizations. These grants will be given to help conduct special projects related to helping the environment or promoting energy efficiency.
To be eligible for a grant, the organization must engage in research and development of new alternative resources, participate in environmental or energy education, or conduct other activities or programs involving the protection of our environment. The organizations must be not-for-profit. Preference will be given to qualified organizations located within KREMC’s service territory, or whose activities directly benefit the KREMC service area.
At the completion of a funded project, the organization must provide a report to KREMC detailing if all goals for the project have been accomplished.
EnviroWatts funds totaling $2,500 will be distributed. Minimum awards will be in the amount of $250. Organizations wishing to apply for funding should download an application from the products and serves area of the KREMC website, or picked one up at the co-op office at 370 S. 250 E. in Warsaw. All applications must be received by April 1.
