The deadline to apply is April 3.
“As a utility company, we know firsthand how valuable our environment is,” said Mark Kempic, president and chief operating officer of Columbia Gas of Pennsylvania. “With the support of our Foundation, the Environmental Action Grant program allows us to strengthen our communities across Pennsylvania by investing in projects that promote environmental stewardship and protect our natural resources.”
“We’ve seen this program support small, local projects that grew into meaningful, long‑term community partnerships,” said Reggie Fields, executive director of the NiSource Charitable Foundation. “By expanding this program across every community we serve, we’re creating space for new ideas and relationships that strengthen environmental stewardship with benefits lasting well beyond that initial grant.”
Eligible organizations must be a 501(c)3 or other non-profit as determined by the Internal Revenue Service and propose an environmentally focused project. Grant funding is not intended for capital projects or related purchases.
Grants will be awarded in the amount of $500 to $5,000 each to selected organizations.
Applications will be accepted now through April 3, with recipients announced the week of April 20 in recognition of Earth Day.
