T

he Infrastructure Act, 
signed by President 
Joe Biden on Nov. 15, 
includes a section offering 
direct grants to nonprofit insti-
tutions that upgrade their ener-
gy efficiency. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Section 40542 
appropriates $50 
million to pay 
for grants of up 
to $200,000 to 
nonprofits that 
increase their 
energy efficiency. 
Secular and religious orga-
nizations, including the Jewish 
Federations of North America, 
the U.S. Conference of Catholic 
Bishops, the Association 
of Art Museums and the 
Union of Orthodox Jewish 

Congregations, actively sup-
ported getting this provision 
enacted into law. 
Commentators noted the 
advocacy of the Orthodox 
Union Advocacy Center, the 
nonpartisan public policy arm 
of the Orthodox Union. 
Nathan Diament, exec-utive 
director for public policy, wel-
comed the legislation: “The 
creation of the Nonprofit 

Energy Efficiency Act will help 
our foundational institutions 
become more environmental-
ly sound and enable them to 
expand their offerings through 
energy cost savings.” 
Steven Ingber, CEO of the 
Detroit Federation, said, “With 
keen interest, we’ve been 
keeping tabs on the Nonprofit 
Energy Efficiency Act since 
it makes millions of dollars 

available to nonprofit organiza-
tions to install energy efficient 
items that reduce energy or 
fuel. Preserving our planet by 
reducing our energy consump-
tion is critical for the future. 
“We have specific team 
members whose job it is to stay 
updated on relevant legislation 
that would strengthen our 
community, and then provide 
guidance and grant-writing 
assistance to agencies that are 
seeking funding. We’ll continue 
to do that important work in 
this instance, too.”
Grants could help pay for 
improving heating, venti-
lation and air-conditioning 
equipment, and upgrading the 
lighting, roof, windows and 
doors. 

Nonprofit Energy Efficiency Act launches a pilot project of grants.
New Funds Available
