Surrounded by the young students of the “Niños Uniendo al Mundo/Jardín del Cielo” School in Caguas, Ford Motor Company officials kicked off this year’s Conservation & Environmental Grants program Wednesday to benefit local schools, nonprofits and grassroots organizations that are doing their part to improve Puerto Rico’s landscape.
Ten local nonprofit organizations will be able to continue their efforts to improve their community’s education and environment with the help of Ford Motor Company, which on Wednesday distributed among them a total of $40,000 in grants through its Conservation and Environmental Program.
A pair of dairy operations in Hatillo and two other operations in Guayanilla and Aibonito are the recipients of nearly $342,000 in U.S. Department of Agriculture grants to implement renewable energy and energy efficiency measures. In the case of Puerto Rico, all of the companies will integrate solar energy technology into their businesses.
