Veganuary with NENA

NENA's Green Initiatives Committee Kicks off Veganuary on January 1st!
Be part of the excitement and join others from over 192 countries in going plant-based for the month of January and throughout the year! 
 
What is Veganuary?
Simply put, it’s an opportunity to try a plant-based diet with friends and neighbors near and far. With recipes, cooking tips, and the chance to connect, Veganuary seeks to change the world for the better. 
 
Why Participate?
Besides enjoying delicious food all month long as you explore the world of plant-based eating, participating alongside other NENA residents will connect you with your local community and provide opportunities to learn how the Green Initiatives Committee contributes to Nokomis East’s vitality. Link to Vegan Recipes and Cooking Tips from the Committee - More Added All Month
 
Sign Me Up!
Connect with NENA on Facebook beginning Friday, January 1st as we share recipes and tips and tricks in the plant-based kitchen. Check back for updates each week on Mondays and Thursdays throughout January. And if you want to join the global community, visit veganuary.com to take the pledge! 


Home Security Rebates


NENA is pleased to offer again its Home Security Rebates project for homeowners, renters, and residential property owners in the four Nokomis East neighborhoods of Keewaydin, 

Grant Amounts: Eligible participants can apply for up to $500 in matching grant funds. This is a one-to-one matching grant and a rebate/ reimbursement project.

Eligibility: The property must be located in the Keewaydin, Minnehaha, Morris Park, or Wenonah neighborhoods. Nokomis East homeowners and property owners of multi-family properties are eligible to participate in the project. NENA staff may support renters to work with their landlord to apply. Rebates are only available for existing properties, not new construction. Businesses and commercial property owners are not eligible to participate (funding source restriction).

Visit NENA's Website for more information and to apply.

 Don’t Forget - Salt Your Plate, Not Your Sidewalk: One teaspoon of sodium chloride (deicing salt), permanently pollutes five gallons of our freshwater resources. Learn More on combating salt pollution in Minnesota waterways.
