Attention, community organizations! We’re excited to announce that funding will be available for selected grassroots education campaigns to begin in June 2020. We’re accepting proposals now through Monday, March 23, 2020.
Community-based organizations are invited to propose strategic face-to-face outreach campaigns that engage underserved communities, with the goal of directly and indirectly driving participation in Illinois Solar for All. We’re looking for organizations with experience successfully implementing education campaigns in low-income or environmental justice communities. Experience with solar is not required.
