SRL has allocated up to $3,000 per event; successful completion of Earth Day (April 22) and desire/availability to manage subsequent two events will result in a $500 “bonus” for each of the two subsequent events.

Sustainable Resilient Longmont is a 501(c)3 organization based in Longmont, Colorado. SRL collaborates with the Longmont community to cultivate a sustainable and thriving city. As the hub for education, advocacy and action, we support the three pillars of sustainability: environmental protection, responsible economic growth and social equity.  We have an active and engaged Board of Directors; while we hope that the contractor is able to attend some of the committee meetings, we will have one point person with whom said contractor will work with (per event) so as to avoid any confusion. Contractor will be required to complete a 1099 and will receive a w-9 from SRL. For more information, visit https://www.srlongmont.org/
