Youth Climate Action Fund
As part of the City of Omaha's Youth Climate Action Fund Mini-Grant Program, we have organized two (2) co-design workshops. The event details are as follows:
August 27, 2026: 5PM-7PM
Learning Community Center of North Omaha - 1612 N 24th Street
&
Goodwill - 3505 L Street
These co-design workshops are a great opportunity for eligible youth (ages 15-24) to learn about the grant opportunity, collaborate with peers, and receive hands-on support from city staff and community leaders. Our goal is for many attending youth to have an application ready to submit by the end of the workshop.
We are reaching out to provide an outreach flyer we developed and to ask for your support in disseminating the event details so we can thoroughly engage Omaha's youth on this topic. We also want to reiterate that applications are currently open and will close on September 8, 2026, at 4 PM. You can find more detail about the program and the online application through the Mayor's website: mayors-office.cityofomaha.org/youth-climate-action-fund/. If your organization is hosting an event before the application closes where we could organize a co-design workshop or conduct outreach, please reach out to us at [email protected].
Thank you for your continued commitment to Omaha's youth and to building a more resilient, climate-ready community.
Best regards,
