Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Solar Schools - Donate solar electricity systems to schools Solar Data on Schools - Donate data collection use in classrooms. Arrange for no cost teacher training workshop opportunities for teachers.

Solar Schools-Donate solar electricity systems to schools for use as educational tools. The solar electricity systems are installed in high profile locations at each school with high visibility and installed by certified solar installers and certified electricians. Solar Data is collected at each school for use for all of the schools as teaching tools. We donate data collection systems for use in classrooms and provide help with maintaining the PV systems at each school. We provide teacher training to schools without charge or cost to districts, schools, or teachers. Most of our current work is in Illinois but we have been working in Ohio, Kentucky, Washington DC, California, Texas, Washington (state), Pennsylvania, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, New Mexico, Louisiana, Maine and Florida.

IRS990/Desc0We obtain grants from other 501c3 non profits and use that money to give grants to schools so that they can have solar electricity and sometimes wind turbines at their schools. The solar and wind systems are small and are used for educational teaching tools and they do not save very much on the school's electricity bills. They are classroom teaching tools that just happen to also generate a small amount of solar electricity. The average cost of such a solar system is less than $8,000. The wind systems are partial grants. The average cost of a wind system is $45,000. This program ended up providing over $150,000 to k-12 schools.

Arrange for no cost teacher training workshop opportunities for teachers. In 2016, we helped over 25 schools install solar electricity systems on their school buildings. We helped train over 50 teachers and helped install over 30 solar electricity data monitoring systems. We also helped 3 schools install wind turbines on their campuses. Most of the schools are either low income, remote schools with less access to technology, or both. We also helped train minority electricians to become solar installers in southern Illinois.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Conduct teacher training workshops for teachers Throughout Illinois. These trainings are free to teacher at our solar and wind schools and materials are available for downloading free of charge for classroom use. We pay for substitute teachers so that schools do not have to incur any costs in allowing its teachers to attend the trainings. Evaluations for the workshops are very high and we almost always are at full capacity. We also provide each school with classroom kits again free of charge. If needed we pay for hotels and mileage and misc snacks and breakfast and lunch. Our goal is to assist low income schools get access to classroom materials that will hopefully help their students find work in the renewable energy field. In 2016, 52% of all new jobs created in the US were in the renewable energy field. But many schools have teachers and students who have never touched a solar panel. Our program helps them gain access to materials and training that will hopefully lead to more jobs being created in rural and low income areas.In 2018, we started an arts training center for low income and minorities in Columbus, Ohio that will help with literacy.
