Volunteers

Deep Patel, CEO of GigaWatt Inc, joins the GRID Greater Los Angeles Board of Directors.

From March 2nd to the 7th, seven amazing students from the University of Vermont brought with them such a strong wave of enthusiasm, curiosity, and optimism that will not soon be forgotten at the Central Coast office.

GRID's warehouse internship program is jump-starting solar careers by training interns in solar installation, site evaluation, and warehouse management. Read more about the success of our interns and how we're igniting the industry with passionate solar job seekers.

As a new year begins at GRID Alternatives Greater Los Angeles, we?re rolling up our sleeves and gearing up for another successful year. This year we?re looking to outdo ourselves by building on last year?s success as we aim to increase access to solar power in the communities we serve. Is it all talk? No way, we got the numbers to prove it!

Watch as GRID Alternatives Inland Empire goes animated

On Friday, December 13th, GRID Alternatives Greater Los Angeles hosted its annual Volunteer Appreciation Social. With more than 100 guests in attendance, positive energy flowed throughout the GLA warehouse. Attendees included experienced team leaders, generous volunteers who have donated their time over the years, as well as job trainees and professors from our various partner job training groups.

GRID Alternatives Inland Empire teamed up with Emma and 6 other Habitat for Humanity Inland Valley homeowners to spread that “enormous good feeling” to hundreds of corporate and individual sponsors, community leaders, and job trainees on November 9th at Solarthon – GRID’s annual community solar installation, block party, and fundraiser!

Rich Gordon is one of those volunteers that every non-profit hopes to have. He is dedicated, passionate, and volunteers.... a LOT. In fact, in just over a year, he has put in over 450 hours of volunteer time, including time at two Solarthons and becoming the star Team Leader in the GRID Alternatives North Valley office.

The Bay Area Young Professionals in Energy show that you can learn a lot while giving back.
