    • Get the grantees checked in,
    • Teach the grantees how to use a portable solar power system,
    • Distribute the solar power systems to the grantees,
    • Help the grantees learn to implement their new system at their rig with their devices,
    • Celebrate with a pizza lunch and volunteer thank yous,
    • Hold an Open House for the community to attend where grantees will display their new power systems at their rigs, and
    • Distribute copies of the paperwork and receipts to the grantees in case warranty work on their granted item(s) is needed.

 

Volunteer Applications will be open through Monday September 25th.
