Our initiative is to provide custom design through our 1931 Letterpress, with tree-free paper and chemical-friendly ink, for the local neighborhood and beyond. We are based in Port Richmond, Philadelphia and run from a Vandercook Letterpress, as well as much silk-screen equipment. Our approach to printing is simple. Based on a mutual agreement with the client, we then proceed to carry out a print job. Our service includes poster production, wedding/ event invitations, book design/binding, and various custom visual printmaking. We take it very seriously to use green-friendly materials including paper, ink and cleaning supplies. Because we are a new, we need help with beginning this business. We find it extremely important to encourage other printers in the region to use green-friendly materials, as well as recycle. This is unfortunately a rare reality to come by, which is why we find it all the more urgent to do this project well.

Hello, My name is Matthew Bruno, my partner's name is Stephen Cooke. Our company, Cabi, is a design-build company focused on workspace and storage solutions. Our system uses a range of clear anodized aluminum components and fittings to build a lighter, stronger solution than traditional cabinetry and casework. We develop custom configurations with clients to match their space, style, and budget. We believe modularity is the key to sustainable design; we recognize that people’s needs change. There are a multitude of scenarios that alter our lives and behavior - from fluctuation in family structure, physical ability, to the unpredictability of fashion. Why shouldn’t our environments be easily alterable to meet new conditions? The Cabi System invites our users to reconfigure their settings by purchasing and exchanging system modules. With this grant we will purchase needed materials for our current Cabi projects. We have two kitchen project and one bath in process.

I would like to build a green/solar-empowered roof on my building to lessen the severe runoff of the Walnut Hill/Mill Creek corridor, and also make my non-profit building/recording studio energy-neutral. As an experienced contractor I can perform most of the labor (carpentry/plumbing/electric) myself and would need help only in solar installation technique and to cover the cost of materials.

Put fruit & veggie dispensers into public and private after school programs, libraries and other public meeting places for kids - especially in urban philadelphia so that kids are not forced to go to the corner store and purchase candy chips and other snack food loaded with artificial sweetners and colors that are so bad for them and does not promote concentration, or mental acuIty. Conduct cooking classes and sustainable workshops for inner city kids

A division of the company for which I am the sales & marketing director is launching a Green specific aspect of their existing business. We have supply side and now have been selected by a manufacturer as a preferred provider of their Green products. Additionally, we would be adding both window and insulation services as well. I am hoping to have an opportunity to determine what programs we might qualify and be considered to participate and receive a grant to aid in launching this new concept.

I am interested in starting a non-profit organization whereby vacant lots can be purchased to develop community gardens in the lower socio-economic areas of Philadelphia.
