The Regional District of Nanaimo (RDN) is pleased to continue the Zero Waste Recycling Funding program in 2025. This program provides funds to local non-profit organizations (NPOs) to create self-sustaining programs that divert waste away from landfills and contribute to a circular economy. The program is intended to stimulate innovation and develop markets and processes for end-of-life materials that will help the RDN to meet its waste diversion goal of 90 per cent.
NPOs operating within the RDN can apply for funding through this program. Up to $300,000 is available through the Zero Waste Recycling Funding program in 2025.
Questions and submissions are to be directed to:
