These ideas will be reviewed by Ford Motor Company and the Green Festivals with the winner earning $5,000 to impact their community. No idea is too small or too big, but to be considered, and idea must be local, innovative and actionable.

Festival attendees will then be able to vote for their favorite project proposal. Votes will be tallied onsite, and the project proposal with the most votes will be announced as the Ford Community Green Grant winner on the final afternoon of the Green Festival.
