Since 1993, the awards have recognized the outstanding efforts of students and teachers across the country who are working at the grassroots level to protect and preserve the environment. Over the last 17 years, we've awarded $1.7 million to more than 150 schools in 35 U.S. states/territories. In 2004, the awards program was expanded to include community groups who are protecting planet Earth. See site for 12/2011!!

What started out initially as a few wooden containers has evolved over the years into a garden oasis that has not only beautified our school, but has also become an important learning environment and wildlife habitat. By giving our students the opportunity to grow produce from seeds while observing and nurturing them , they can understand the importance of “farm to table” and have a greater appreciation of where their food comes from. pdboyer Mon, 25 Apr 2011 13:51:05 GMT http://haymarket.org/ Haymarket People’s Fund is an anti-racist and multi-cultural foundation that is committed to strengthening the movement for social justice in New England.

It's a good resource for activists trying to find foundation funding sources. But, it's actually intended for anti-activist org that target these foundations and activist. They say they offer "in-depth profiles of anti-consumer activist groups, along with information about the sources of their exorbitant funding." As an example, they say: "The Organic Consumers Association is another charter member of the organic-food-industry-funded smear campaign against genetically improved foods." It's a confusing site that might accidentally serve as a good resource for you... resources & organizations theCoup Mon, 30 Mar 2009 20:46:35 GMT http://www.fundsnetservices.com/ Grant Money chockey Tue, 10 Mar 2009 13:29:46 GMT
