Programs

  1. The centralina collaborative gives our organization more opportunities to explore new partnerships and funding sources. As a 501(c)3 non-profit charitable organization, the collaborative can apply for grants from philanthropic organizations. Additional funding and partnerships are both key to ensuring centralina has the resources to support our ongoing activities and initiatives. The collaborative is governed by a board of trustees that meets four to six times a year to establish strategic priorities, approve budgets and oversee partnerships.

  2. Clean cities - a coalition that works with vehicle fleets, fuel providers, community leaders, and other stakeholders to identify community-driven choices that save energy and promote the use of alternative fuels and advanced vehicle technologies in transportation.

NC

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $10k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
