4GreenTires.org wins generous grant from Keen Footwear

keenstand.jpgYippeee! In December I submitted a grant application to Keen Footwear for my little not-for-profit project, 4GreenTires.org. Today I learned that the program was awarded a generous $5,000 runner up prize!

I can hardly wait to use the money to expand the program a bit and make a bigger impact on the community.

You can read the entry and all the other great ideas (four of which also won similar prizes). Thank you Keen Footwear!

P.S. Talk about a great company – they even have a “Ventura” line of cool sneaks.

    Rush, congratulations! Can you develop a non-profit that will help me keep the back tire of my bike from falling off (like it did yesterday)?

    I have two pairs of Keen shoes- one for water and one for snow- and love them. Now that I know the company has been so wise to recognize your efforts, I’m an even bigger fan.
