Solar Upgrading Nonprofits (SUN) Program

Let's illuminate human services! The Providers' Council has partnered with Resonant Energy, a leader in the field of solar energy with a mission to make solar accessible to nonprofit human service organizations across Massachusetts.

Many organizations have expressed strong interest in solar but lack the internal capacity and expertise to pursue feasibility assessments and projects. This program bridges that gap by providing organizations free solar feasibility analyses as well as stipends to cover the staff-time invested in this process.

The goal of SUN (Solar Upgrading Nonprofits) is to support organizations that serve high-need, under-resourced individuals and communities. Our partnership program aims to help nonprofit human service providers install solar and reduce their operating costs through technical and grant writing assistance.

BENEFITS TO ORGANIZATIONS:

  • Stipends to cover staff time associated with solar exploration (up to $7,500 depending on portfolio size)
  • No-cost solar analysis of building(s)
  • Free grant writing assistance for organizations that move forward with solar

The deadline to apply is June 30, 2025.

Stipends and grant assistance are first come, first serve, so apply today!
