On June 16th, more than 125 people gathered at Silo City to celebrate the power of solar to change lives.
With long-time supporters and new friends alike, we renewed our shared commitment to creating a brighter future for off-grid families experiencing energy poverty and for us all. It was a lively evening thanks to great music by Johnny and the Man Kids, delicious food from Louise Sano of Global Villages, drumming by Eric Ansuade and the SlyBoots Circus, and – of course – the community that came to share in our celebration.

To those who attended, THANK YOU for supporting this impactful work and for raising the funds to directly impact more than 13,000 people with our direct solar programming.
To those who weren’t able to attend but were celebrating in spirit, we encourage you to check out the evening’s highlights below and mark your calendars for our 2027 Solar Celebration!
