Arizona Homegrown Solutions (AZHS) has been selected as one of 41 finalists across the country for a chance to win $20,000 through a grant from Tom’s of Maine. The funds would allow AZHS to install four water-harvesting cisterns at area nonprofits, including Phoenix Public Market. Green job training would be provided through this grant for underserved populations and free water harvesting classes would be offered to the public.
There will only be five winners chosen by popular demand. Your vote counts! You can vote once a day until September 10. To vote, head to the Tom’s website and scroll down to Arizona Homegrown Solutions, Phoenix, Arizona. AZHS needs your vote!
The Phoenix Public Market needs your help, too! Voting for your favorite local market ends August 31.
