MMSB Solid Waste Management Innovation Fund
Multi-Materials Stewardship Board · Provincial
In plain language
Non-repayable contribution up to $50K (raised from $15K in 2025) for NL-operated businesses, industry associations, and nonprofits doing projects that advance solid-waste reduction, reuse, recycling, or recovery. Annual intake typically opens summer, closes fall. Historically low competition — MMSB has funded 95+ projects over the life of the program. Real-world awards cluster in the $10K–$30K range; the $50K cap is rare. The win: quick decisions, light paperwork, mission-aligned money. The catch: you must show measurable diversion outcomes, not just good intentions.
