Thanks to everyone who voted for our ''Project for Awesome'' (P4A) video, we won $30,600! In a field of heavy hitters like UNICEF and World Central Kitchen, Sustainability Matters was the only non-national organization to win P4A. We’re so proud of this accomplishment, and so grateful to you for making it happen! This funding, courtesy of the community-driven charitable movement created by “VlogBrothers” Hank and John Green, will now help us bring you more projects like Making Trash Bloom and our popular webinars. We already knew our members and volunteers were awesome. By voting, liking our video, and mobilizing friends & family to do the same, you’ve proven it. A college student in California rallied everyone in her computer lab to pitch in. Thanks to one of our sponsors, an entire factory joined the cause. A whole Garden Club voted. And an SM board member’s teenage son watched most of the competition videos before prounouncing ours the best (and telling all his friends)! This campaign shows it really does take a village (or a planet…).
