POW Partners
To achieve our aggressive grant goals, Protect Our Winters is seeking strong partnerships with corporations who share our vision.
Protect Our Winters is a nonprofit organization. As such, we actively pursue grants and donations to cover operating expenses. We also work closely with partners to develop specific programs that help achieve their marketing/sustainability goals, with results they can stand behind. Partners can support us in a number of ways:
1. Funding POW Monthly Grants and the General Fund
- POW makes grants each month, throughout the year to organizations that meet our mission. Grant applications are reviewed monthly.
- POW is also very active in community activism projects to help raise awareness and engagement at the local level.
2. Funding Specific POW Initiatives
- POW Solar Schools Initiative
- POW Kids Educational Program
3. Developing and Funding Custom Projects
Creating new, unique programs that meet partners specific marketing/sustainability initiatives. A most recent project includes the production and marketing/distribution of “Generations”, a climate change film by The North Face and TGR.
