Did you know Iowa Valley Habitat for Humanity has started building homes that are “solar-ready”? This means that Iowa Valley Habitat for Humanity homes are built with the wiring and infrastructure needed to accommodate solar panels in the future—without requiring costly renovations. You can help us with the next step: turning these homes from “solar-ready” to"solar-powered.” Designate your gift to the Solar Energy Fund to support the installation costs of solar panel arrays on Habitat homes.
You can also consider a Carbon Offset Initiative to compensate for CO₂ emissions from your flights or other carbon-intensive activities by contributing to the Solar Energy Fund. Learn more about the Carbon Offset Initiative and access the carbon offset calculator to determine your suggested donation to our Solar Energy Fund by visiting https://www.habitatsolar.org/.
Your gift—whether supporting energy-efficient building practices, offsetting your carbon emissions through solar, or both—makes a lasting impact. Together, we can build affordable homes that are healthier for families, more environmentally friendly, and stronger for our community.
