“Meeting the demands of the climate crisis is going to take a massive investment in electrifying homes that puts communities and people at the center,”
The Equitable Building Electrification Fund ensures that decision-making power is in the hands of frontline communities,
who can best design and implement
equitable solutions for widespread building and community electrification
$50 Million by 2025 Call to Action to Philanthropy
The Equitable Building Electrification Fund: A Collaboration for Frontline Communities (EBE Fund), which moves money and power to decarbonize buildings and create healthier communities, in October 2022 announced a $50 Million by 2025 Call to Action to philanthropy to accelerate a just clean energy transition.
Led by a diverse Governance Assembly of environmental and climate justice leaders, advocates, and funders, the EBE Fund advances a trust-based model of philanthropy where those who know their communities best can design and implement equitable solutions for widespread electrification.
