PARNTER WITH US - COMMUNITY GRANT PROGRAM
TOGETHER, WE CAN CREATE IMPACT
Ecotrust is a collaborative nonprofit, working with community members and organizations to amplify our vision of an equitable, prosperous, and climate-smart future.
We are dedicated to creating vibrant event spaces that foster equity and celebrate diversity. Through our Community Grant Program, we offer nonprofit organizations the opportunity to access in-kind venue space for hosting events. Our focus is on supporting organizations with limited resources that center communities of color. Additional consideration will be given to initiatives that bring equity to issues of gender, class, socioeconomic status, and ability. We view this as a chance to provide a welcoming space for meaningful dialogue and collective action.
