Delta Institute

Even though last week's BOOST event is concluded, we're exploring more ways to support emerging entrepreneurs in sustainability. One way we're doing so this year is through a new partnership with Green Pro Bono ♻️ ⚖️ 💚

"Green Pro Bono is excited to partner with Delta Institute’s BOOST program to support entrepreneurs developing innovative solutions for environmental sustainability," shares Stephanie Demetry, Executive Director at Green Pro Bono. "Programs like BOOST help surface creative ideas and give emerging leaders the resources they need to move those ideas forward. We are proud to be part of an initiative that celebrates sustainability, entrepreneurship, and community on Earth Day."

Each of this year's BOOST finalists will receive pro bono legal support to help them continue developing their start-ups. Thank you so much for your partnership, Green Pro Bono! 😊

🌍 We're thrilled to announce that Delta Institute has been selected as a 2026 Keeling Curve Prize Finalist, which recognizes the impactful work we do to address the world's pressing challenge — climate change.

Out of over 600 applicants from around the globe, Delta Institute's work has been chosen as one of the most promising climate projects. As one of the finalists in the Finance category, we are proud to stand among the top innovators in our field and contribute to driving impactful initiatives.

Climate Curve is recognizing Delta Institute's work in developing a novel soil health land valuation methodology. This new approach has the potential to revolutionize the way we value farmland, removing economic and structural barriers for farmers, landowners, and appraisers to implement soil health management systems. This will create new pathways for climate-smart agriculture to become the norm, building the capacity to sequester hundreds of millions of metric tons of emissions from the atmosphere into the soil annually.

We're excited to share more updates as we embark on this journey and look forward to the winners' announcement on July 1, where we will have the chance to win $50,000 to scale our impact.

Happy Earth Day!! 🤗💚🌎
Later today, as Delta Institute celebrates Earth Day at our 14th annual BOOST event, we'll be celebrating all the progress we make in partnership with sponsors like our friends at American Family Insurance.
American Family Insurance gives back to the community in several ways, helping strengthen the resilience and sustainability of communities across the US. Learn more about some of their initiatives here: https://www.amfam.com/about/sustainable-business-framework/communities
