BlueGreen Alliance Foundation: Grantee Spotlight

The Giving Green Fund plans to award a restricted grant to the BlueGreen Alliance Foundation (BGAF). This is one of a series of grants to support an ecosystem of nonprofits working to expand and decarbonize domestic industrial production through increased public and private investment and trade policy that favors cleaner industrial material imports. While most of BGAF’s work is focused on US stakeholders, markets, and policies, we think these efforts, when combined with trade policies such as a carbon border adjustment mechanism, can have a global impact.

This falls within our philanthropic strategy of decarbonizing heavy industry. please see Giving Green’s deep dive report on decarbonizing heavy industry for more information, including risks and potential co-benefits, recommended sub-strategies, theory of change, funding need, and key uncertainties.

BlueGreen Alliance Foundation is a 501(c)(3) entity and BlueGreen Alliance is a 501(c)(4) entity.
