Rotary Club of Peterborough and Cleantech Commons

The Rotary Environmentalist Innovators Fund (REIF) was created by a collection of active citizens and businesses – the Environmental Champions group – to support and advance the passion of local Environmental Innovators—environmentalists working on some of the top environmental concerns facing us today and impacting us locally.

REIF Champions participate in selecting three Innovator applications for funding, with $3,000 awarded to each finalist. By participating in the voting process, Champions significantly and immediately impact local environmental leaders’ initiatives in sustainable projects.

Finalists from the REIF are pre-approved for a microloan of up to $20,000 to grow their sustainable business ventures.
