On March 29, 2011, Neighborhood Mini-Grants Awardees, Sustainable Tompkins board and staff, and community members and supporters gathered at La Tourelle. Together, we celebrated the significant achievements of the Neighborhood Mini-Grants awardees.  We invite you to listen to some of the powerful stories shared by our Neighborhood Mini-Grant recipients and to support this valuable program that is seeding such amazing projects in our community.  Our Mini-Grants are made possible through individual donations, sponsorships, and grants.  Your support helps build a more just and sustainable community – thank you!  Please visit our Online Gift Form to contribute.

Double Your Impact:

If you are a new donor to Sustainable Tompkins, your gift will be matched 100% by the Park Foundation!  If you are already a donor to Sustainable Tompkins we would be honored if you would encourage a friend to join you in support of our work.  Questions about the match?  Please contact Nicole@SustainableTompkins.org of call 607-216-1552 and we will be happy to assist you.
