In a significant stride toward sustainability, we've successfully installed solar panels that currently power lighting, fans, and essential systems for our Youth Center and Green School's classroom. From reducing utility costs, contributing to a sustainable future, our solar panels mark the beginning of a transformative chapter for our organization.





However, we face a challenge during prolonged cloudy periods, as the current solar capacity falls short. Additionally, as we look ahead to summer, we will need additional panels for sufficient solar power to run air conditioning during our programs, impacting the focus and comfort of our youth.



Your support is crucial in bridging this gap. By contributing to the funding of AC units & new solar panels, you'll help us ensure a consistent and comfortable environment, for our youth to thrive in all seasons. Donate today: https://givebutter.com/GreenSchoolVqs


We would thank Isla Nena Renovations for their donation of time and labor installing new roofing for the entire building, solar panels, wiring / all new electrical / plumbing systems for the facility.
