The Green Heroes Grant Program
The makers of Green Works natural cleaners created the program to identify and award $10,000 in funding to five eco-friendly community projects across the country. The Green Heroes grants are intended to help these community projects grow and flourish.
Between January 15 and February 28, 2009, the Green Works team invited individuals to nominate eco-friendly community projects for a Green Heroes grant by submitting online a photo and short essay about the project for consideration. A panel of eco-experts including representatives from the Sierra Club, EcoFabulous.com and Josh Dorfman, the Lazy Environmentalist, reviewed all submissions and select 10 finalists. The five winners were selected by popular online vote from March 23 until April 10, 2009. (For more information, click here.)
