Zero Waste Sonoma is seeking proposals from qualified organizations or individuals to implement a Repair Event and Reuse Education program throughout Sonoma County. The program aims to raise awareness about the benefits of reuse and provide free repair services to residents in member jurisdictions, while supporting the local reuse economy.
The primary objectives of this project are to:
- Promote Repair and Reuse Culture: Foster a culture of repair and reuse among Sonoma County residents, emphasizing environmental sustainability and reducing waste.
- Provide Education and Hands-on Workshops: Offer educational sessions and hands-on workshops at Repair Events to teach attendees skills for repairing common household items.
- Reduce Waste Sent to Landfills: Reduce the volume of waste sent to landfills by encouraging residents to repair and reuse items rather than discard them.
- Increase Community Engagement: Strengthen community participation through interactive, accessible events that connect local experts with residents.
- Build Long-Term Skills: Equip participants with knowledge and skills they can apply beyond the Repair Fairs to encourage long-term repair practices in their everyday lives.
Proposals are due April 22, 2025, 5:00pm PT.
