Community Grantmaking

As You Sow’s toxic enforcement cases often result in settlement agreements that include monetary restitution in lieu of penalties. As You Sow ensures that the citizens of California benefit from these monies by granting or using them for investigation, research, and enforcement of environmental laws.

Since 1992, As You Sow has granted out over $2.8 million to over 100 organizations doing work related to toxics reduction, environmental education, and environmental justice in California.
