SustainaBoost Program

Innovate Landfill Solution (ILS) Canada aims to provide and support environmental protection programs to local communities and facilities. This program supports community-based, resident-led initiatives for creating a healthy environment, enhancing social inclusion, promoting civic engagement, and improving environmental education. The goal is to establish sustainable recycling habits and innovate waste management.

Participants and organizations involved receive the opportunity for prizes at every event through well-prepared environmental activities, and the total value of this support up to $1,500, as per the support details. Participants can exert environmental influence externally and internally proceed with special environmental programs easily and without financial burden. This enables the achievement of environmental protection results and the acquisition of environmental titles.

The program allows participant organizations to join without the need for special preparation or process burden, offering a meaningful environmental program that provides a sense of belonging, accomplishment, and the joy of participation.

Program support will begin to be supplied according to the program support schedule after the application deadline, and will be available over a period of one year or until the total support funds are exhausted.

Event Activities Implementation

1. Location Requirements: Activities must be conducted in the actual building where your facility or organization operates. Optionally, if you wish to engage the local community, activities may also take place in public and accessible spaces within your organization’s building.

2. Duration of Support: Event activities will be supported for one year or until funding is depleted, whichever comes first.

3. Documentation: ILS Canada will request photos and videos of the program implementation from the participating institutions. Should any actions deviate from the spirit of the program support, support will be terminated.

This framework ensures that our support aligns with initiatives that contribute to a sustainable and inclusive environmental future, reinforcing our collective responsibility towards a healthier planet.
