Funding Opportunities for Your House of Worship

Improving Your House of Worship through Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy, and Restoration Projects

When a house of worship is evaluating their building for improvements, it’s common to identify energy efficiency, renewable energy, and restoration projects at the same time. The Interreligious Eco-Justice Network is inviting you and your house of worship to a webinar series that can help your religious communities strategize about your projects, as well as identify funding sources.
