The Million-Mile Challenge

Support Sustainable Home Upgrades

Will you help us reach one million miles of carbon offsets?

Offsetting emissions from flights, road trips, and daily commuting feels good, and does good too!

Now, the Million-Mile Challenge will celebrate 10 years of RENEW’s impact. Every contribution to the RENEW Climate Fund goes towards making local homes:

  • Safer

  • More environmentally-friendly

  • More affordable to heat and cool

Since launching in 2015, RENEW has helped upgrade nearly 1,000 homes while reducing +12,000 tons of carbon emissions. A typical RENEW grant is only $5,000, but has life-changing effects like improved mental health and ability to age in place.
