What a great youth-led, green community service project! Bottle caps that are not accepted for recycling curbside or at most drop off recycling locations are collected for recycling and turned into buddy benches for young people. It's a win-win!

Our Story

Carmel Green Teen Micro-Grant Program offers funding for volunteer sustainability projects designed and carried out by young people in Carmel or Clay Township in Indiana.

Grant awards up to $1,000 are available for projects that:
1) Put the ideas and energies of young people – in preschool through high school – to work to help make Carmel / Clay Township a greener, more sustainable community through projects that educate the public and reduce pollution, conserve natural resources, and/or save energy.
2) Are planned, developed, implemented and measured by young people with adults serving as “guides on the side.” Additional adult guidance is permitted for our younger volunteers in preschool through grade 5.
3) Have a realistic budget and a solid plan that achieves the most benefit with the fewest dollars.
4) Have a variety of clearly defined activities and responsibilities for project participants.
5) Have specific start and completion dates, with possible exceptions for ongoing projects which have additional sponsorship.
6) Directly benefit the Carmel / Clay Township, Indiana community and not just the organization sponsoring the youth group.

*Youth-serving agencies, schools, scout groups, religious organizations, recreation programs, community / neighborhood centers, and other nonprofit organizations that actively engage young people in solving community problems are welcome to apply.
*Youth groups from surrounding areas may apply for funding, however their project must take place in Carmel/Clay Township in Indiana. *If your group is not incorporated as a nonprofit organization, the Carmel Green Teen Micro-Grant Program will help you locate a sponsor.
