Local

Locally Green is an online resource for Alternative Fuel Foundation’s partner restaurants to gain exposure by joining a database of local green restaurants working to offset carbon emissions through their green initiatives. In partnership with the Alternative Fuel Foundation used cooking oil is turned into clean burning biofuel. With the proceeds from the recycled cooking oil, Locally Green partner restaurants have the opportunity to donate the proceeds to organizations working towards a sustainable future or keep the proceeds to fund their green initiatives. There are two ways to donate used cooking oil and each way provides advantages for the partner restaurants.

Oil-2-Education

Locally Green partner restaurants have the option to donate the recycled oil proceeds to predetermined organizations working towards a sustainable future.

  1. The partner restaurant will be listed in Locally Green's online database of restaurants.
  2. The partner restaurant will be listed in Alternative Fuel Foundation’s directory of establishments that donate used cooking oil.
  3. The partner restaurant will receive 2 green leaves from the Green Leaf Program, representing a high level of eco-friendliness. The leaves will be displayed on the Locally Green database and mounted as window decals.
  4. A Facebook “Like” button will be placed on the partner restaurant's page in the Locally Green database.
  5. The partner restaurant will receive a window decal, "Oi-2-Education".
  6. Locally Green will provide 500 Adwords to be used in promoting the partner restaurant.
  7. Organizations will apply online and Alternative Fuel Foundation will select which organizations have the opportunity to receive donations. Locally Green mobile app users will receive two votes towards donations when they check-in at a partner restaurant donating oil proceeds to "Oil-2-Education".
  8. Every week Locally Green will feature 1-5 restaurants donating their proceeds to Oil-2-Education. Those restaurants will be featured on Facebook and Twitter.
