Last Day!
Thank you so much to everyone who has supported our Berkeley Crowdfunding campaign so far- your donations will make a huge difference in our fight for environmental justice! We're reaching the end of February, and the last day of this fundraiser- but it's not the end. We were allocated a month to use this crowdfunding platform, and so starting on March 1st, we will transition back to using our original crowdfunding page to continue our fundraising efforts. We're about 65% of the way to our final goal, which we need to reach by March 24th.
The page we will start using on March 1st can be found here: https://donate.gridalternatives.org/campaign/uc-berkeley-2019-ssb/c207964
Thank you again for supporting us, and we will begin reaching out this coming month to fulfill the perks you may chosen along with your donations!

Attend a DeCal Class
Come to one of our DeCal (student-taught) classes and see what we're learning about outside of the worksite! We cover a wide range of topics relating to solar power, from the technical side of solar technology and how panels actually work to the social side of environmental justice. This wide scope allows us to provide a holistic view of solar power and the solar industry for our students.

Writing on Solar Panels
Get your name and/or a message written on the back of a solar panel before installation. We’ll send you a picture of it! (The backs of the solar panels we use are flat and white, and writing on them does not affect their performance at all. Last year, our team signed our names on the last one before we installed it!)
