Inspired and Empowered to Help Others

This month we would like to spotlight Ernest Ray Richardson (Ernie), one of our dedicated and versatile board members for GRID Alternatives Central Valley office. In his life, Ernie has obtained a wealth of experience and knowledge from serving in the U. S. Air Force, a U. S. Postal Clerk, an owner of an income tax service, to the Housing Program Supervisor for the City of Modesto until his retirement in October 2003, just to name a few of the diverse jobs in his career. However, retirement did not stop his service to the community.

It's the Future
“I’m on a single income that I get at the beginning of the month, and by the 10th, I’m broke,” shares Mrs. Morris, noting that the lower energy bills brought by solar would be a big help, if it weren’t for the up-front cost.

Rebuilding Hope on the North Coast
Following the 2015 Valley Fire, GRID Alternatives Bay Area/North Coast  began looking for opportunities to pair rebuilt homes with solar and its associated cost savings. Earlier this month, on a scorching 119 degree day, the Wasik Family became the first fire survivors to receive a GRID solar system, nearly a year to the day after moving in to their rebuilt home.
