Project details
What we need
- Review of existing mission, vision and/or values
- Analysis of the existing programs and any future plans
- Strategic consultation surrounding the existing functions and the core needs the Organization seeks to address
- Freshly written mission, vision & values statements
Additional details
The Possible Planet Road Trip Program is a community education program, accompanied by actionable opportunities for a sustainable economic recovery. While the overall goal of the program is clear -- to shift from a degenerating economy to a fully regenerative one -- its application has to be adapted to each community. We have several descriptions of the program that we can share with you, but it needs to be more clearly focused and expressed for the Program Strategy & Goals project.
What we have in place
- We currently have some materials in development, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have two dedicated principals, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $7,248 , allowing us to devote more resources to the community programs.
This is the main way that we intend to share our work with professionals and the lay public, in order to design scalable solutions, so it's critically important to us.

Our mission
Our mission, stated simply, is to assist communities in dealing with the impacts of climate change -- with education on issues that can affect their long term ability to regenerate their ecological and economic systems, to provide local government institutions with advice and assistance, and to provide small businesses and non-profit organizations with financial resources to mitigate climate change, especially in LMI areas.
What we do
In addition to our two primary programs -- PACE (Property Assessed Clean Energy) and alternative Regenerative Financing models, which are designed to provide flexible and attractive clean energy financing -- we have been extensively involved in efforts to develop new eco-communities, devise a global monetary policy and complementary currency for climate mitigation, and develop local green cooperatives to assist communities with creating greater economic resilience. We are currently a fiscal sponsor to three of these programs, and provide additional support in a variety of ways, including assistance with web sites, grant applications, fundraising, etc.
Testimonials
In wrapping the project up, I wrote to our Board that "we’d like to acknowledge and express our appreciation of two remarkable Catchafire volunteers, Schuyler Routt and Gina Ottrando, who brought their incisive and experienced perspectives to bear on this assignment. I believe this project has served to elicit our mission, vision, and values in a way that allows us to move forward with purpose, confidence, and the conviction that what we are doing is worthwhile and deserving of the effort and support needed to achieve these goals. Everything else can flow from this, and while it may constantly be in need of revision and further creation, this provides a sufficient starting point and foundation for the project going forward." We were fortunate to have them both. They came prepared to meetings, managed the time and the agenda, and prepared materials before and after. Schuyler provided structure, managed the time and agendas, hosted the meetings on Google Meet, and sent out multiple reminders. He is masterful in slide presentations and meeting management skills. AHe also did a remarkable job of capturing notes while participating fully in the conversation and making thoughtful suggestions. Gina is streetsmart & highly competent in problem-solving and making practical recommendations for program implementation. Our sincere thanks to you both for helping us work through our ideas and asking the right questions.
