Did you know that GRID partners with community colleges, nonprofit job training groups, other nonprofits, and local government agencies to provide real-world skills to supplement classroom experience? This month City College of San Francisco students connected their classroom studies to the real deal on a two-day live install!

At GRID, customer testimonial is the greatest way we find new clients to serve. One client from 2012 shared her story with other homeowners in partnership with the Oakland Housing Authority. Her GRID story has convinced others of the benefits of solar and now seven new Oakland clients have solarized their rooftops in just three months!

We're launching our Solar Affordable Housing Program in the Mid-Atlantic region! The EPA's Gina McCarthy, HUD’s Julian Castro, & White House officials came out to celebrate with us and shine a spotlight on access to solar power for low-income families.

GRID, our partners, our volunteers, and our homeowners all contributed for one day of installation for our 9th annual Solarthon!

For Solarthon 2014, GRID will bring solar to 8 Habitat for Humanity homes in Oceanview, San Francisco.

Here in Shannon County, South Dakota, poverty is endemic, perpetuated by substandard housing and lack of economic infrastructure. In the Pine Ridge reservation and surrounding communities, a growing population of Native youth struggles with uncertain opportunity. Tribal and community leaders are facing these obstacles down by embarking on a path of sustainable community development that embraces cultural values and self-determination.

Our Solar Construction Intern found employment after logging hours with GRID. This Solarthon he'll be paying it forward!

It’s been six months since our satellite office launched into the North Coast to serve the many tribal nations in that region. We’re thrilled to report all we’ve accomplished!

Sal Torres got to say thank-you in person to Wells Fargo for its support of GRID's job training program, which propelled him into a solar career.
