We believe no one should go hungry, period. With many facing food insecurity, to help support our community we’ve donate $4,500 to the Foodbank of Central and Eastern NC from March through June by pledging $25 for each virtual solar assessment we had. Through the continued support of our business by families wanting to learn about solar for their homes, we were able to pass it on by donating an equivalent of 22,500 meals! This regional food bank provides food and support to a myriad of other agencies addressing food insecurity.
We have the best customers who care deeply about a lot of the things we care about. Many of you also speak about your solar experience and send your friends and family our way. We’ve always said thank you when you send us someone who goes solar with $250 for you and $250 for them. In 2020, we expanded our referral program to include a $250 donation to the Foodbank of Central and Eastern North Carolina for each referral that went solar with us. Your referrals help keep us going during this difficult time, and for that we’re extremely thankful. With your support, we were able to share the love by giving back $9,750 to the foodbank in 2020. Stay tuned for new 2021 partnership announcements!
With Stay at Home orders in place across North Carolina and the country, we are all facing unique personal and professional challenges. To support our community, we’re opening many of our internal SEM YOUniversity courses for all to enjoy. We’re bringing virtual events to the comfort of your home, and all are welcome (even the pups)! Topics range from Kombucha Making 101 to Conquering Stress and Anxiety, and we’ll have virtual Happy Hours every Thursday. Even though we may be physically distanced, we hope to meet many new smiling faces and make new friends.
Continuing to join forces in collective action to spread love and compassion with our friends and neighbors can help heal our communities. There are so many great movements happening around North Carolina. Here are some causes our team and partners are supporting, ways you can take action, and resources for those in need.
