Hello everyone!
Great news! The grant application I submitted yesterday to the City's FAN Action Plan was approved today. Yay! We have $1,000 to go towards purchasing 20 self-watering pots for the incoming youth volunteers (Y-Map and CYFC) to grow vegetables in at the Leisure Centre. The grant is funded by ConocoPhillips and it's a partnership with the City to support communities in carrying out projects that will reduce the city's ecological footprint.
I've alerted Devynne to look out for the cheque. As we don't yet have our bank account, the cheque will be made out to the church - much like our previous grants. We should have the funds in the next couple of weeks. I've left a message with greengate to look into ordering in the pots.
Alex
