El <\/span>Instituto para la Autosuficiencia Local<\/a><\/strong> (ILSR) is launching a BIPOC Community Composter Mini-Grant Program<\/span>\u00a0to support new or existing local community composters in coastal states in New England. Programs seeking funding must be BIPOC-led or BIPOC-serving, in a Native Nation, or working in a historically excluded neighborhood.<\/span> We will provide $100,000 in sub-grants to selected projects, awarding up to 10 grants with a minimum grant of $5,000 and a maximum of $20,000.<\/b> This new opportunity is made possible\u00a0by Carrera de \u00faltima hora<\/a>\u2019s grant program, funded by The Schmidt Family Foundation.<\/p>\r\n

Adem\u00e1s de la financiaci\u00f3n, los adjudicatarios recibir\u00e1n virtual <\/span>capacitaci\u00f3n en compostaje caliente<\/a><\/strong>, a travel stipend to attend <\/span>the 8th National Cultivating Community Composter Forum in Cleveland, Ohio, in October 2024,<\/span> and access to ILSR\u2019s <\/span>Coalici\u00f3n de compostadores comunitarios<\/a><\/strong>, una red de compostadores comunitarios que crea conexiones, difunde lecciones aprendidas e inspira nuevas operaciones.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Varios estados de Nueva Inglaterra<\/a><\/strong> have enacted legislation to divert food waste from disposal, mainly targeting large food waste generators. While abundant resources are available to assist supermarkets and other food waste generators in meeting these regulations, there is a notable lack of support for schools, community gardens, and urban farms in historically excluded neighborhoods to establish a local circular economy. This program addresses this disparity by providing limited resources and guidance to fill this gap.<\/p>\r\n

Cumpliremos con nuestro <\/span>Principios rectores de equidad<\/a><\/strong> guiar nuestra toma de decisiones y ayudar a garantizar la equidad, la justicia y la inclusi\u00f3n apoyen nuestras decisiones de financiamiento de minigrandes.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
