We helped upgrade the lighting at Missoula's Senior Center to greatly reduce energy use and cost.
The Climate Catalyst Fund is a program of Climate Smart Missoula.
It gives individuals, businesses, and nonprofits a way to turn their capital into meaningful local climate action by supporting projects that reduce emissions.
In turn, it enables fund recipients – developers, builders, and fellow nonprofits – to incorporate energy efficiency, weatherization, and renewable energy into housing and other buildings, upgrades that wouldn’t be possible without this catalytic support.
The Climate Catalyst Fund fills a critical gap, making impactful projects happen right here in our community.
