[Green] DuPont Grant Change

[Michael Chisholm]

Hello All,

I received news on the Clear Into the Future Grant that the money will NOT
go to the Sustainability Forum. The Corporate Grant Director decided the
event is more of a sponsorship role. They would rather fund tangible
sustainability improvements such as installing solar powered car charging
stations, adding native plants to river banks to filter water and prevent
erosion, etc.

Given the uncertainty around the forum timing and the possibility of going
digital, this is not necessarily bad news. What is good news is they still
have us slated for $7,500 (one of the highest awards given globally!!!) and
we can execute projects to showcase in the forum!

We have until September 11th to submit our revised application with the
project(s) we would like to fund.

For those interested, let's setup a time to discuss *and decide* on what
projects to put this money towards. Does this Sunday work? Can someone
setup a Zoom meeting? I do not have an account that allows me to create a
meeting.

Thank You,


Michael Chisholm
