Solar energy jobs increased 9% nationwide from 2020 to 2021, creating meaningful work for hundreds of thousands of people. As the industry continues to grow, so does the need to ensure its opportunities are accessible to underrepresented groups, including women, the formerly incarcerated, and individuals who are Black, indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC).
Today, we’re asking you to rise up and help meet that critical need.
At the MREA, we’re rolling up our sleeves and partnering with organizations dedicated to environmental and climate justice to provide full-ride scholarships to aspiring solar professionals in underrepresented communities across the Midwest—but we need your help to make it happen.
With your support, we can provide free access to the training students need to join the growing solar workforce and help build a more inclusive clean energy future.
