Unlike standard Lendwithcare loans to low-income entrepreneurs, you will not receive cash repayments on the climate positive grants you make. This is because the individuals or groups you support through making a grant are instead making their ‘repayment’ a different way - through preventing CO₂ emissions and/or absorbing CO₂ from the atmosphere.
