# Massachusetts Awards Reuse and Repair Microgrants

On November 6, 2026, the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) awarded **$133,150** through its 2026 Reduce, Reuse, Repair Microgrants to 18 organizations, municipalities, nonprofits, and academic institutions. The grants support reuse and repair projects with equipment, tools, tracking software, and skills training; about 75% of the funding supports projects in disadvantaged communities. No open solicitation or future application deadline is identified, but funded projects may create downstream purchasing needs for suppliers and service providers.

- Suppliers of repair and reuse equipment, tools, tracking software, and training can review the funded projects to identify potential sales or service needs among grant recipients.
- The awards are grants to recipient organizations, not an open MassDEP procurement; businesses should distinguish potential recipient-level purchases from agency solicitations.
- The concentration of funding in disadvantaged communities may help suppliers and training providers prioritize outreach to projects serving those communities.
