Grant description –
CGC believes that every state, territory and tribal area should have at least one sustainable finance institution and that all these institutions should be supported by and in a network that CGC as the national green bank supports with funding and technical assistance. To this end, CGC seeks to partner with local municipalities and nonprofit recipients in every such area where we do not currently have a state entity in our American Green Bank Consortium. CGC plans to support all SFA recipients with technical assistance, knowledge sharing, and recycling of loan capital.
