With a network of nearly 700 congregations in California alone, the organization will provide outreach and education within its network to identify families that qualify for our Solar Affordable Housing Program.<\/p>\n<p>IPL has over a decade of experience helping congregations address global warming by being better stewards of energy. According to Program Director the Rev. Will Scott, the partnership with GRID was inspired in part by Pope Francis\u2019 recent call for \u201can integrated approach to combating poverty, restoring dignity to the excluded, and at the same time protecting nature.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIPL&#8217;s partnership with GRID Alternatives helps us \u2018practice what we preach\u2019 and live into our commitment to protect the earth\u2019s ecosystems, safeguard the health of all Creation, and ensure sufficient, sustainable energy for all,\u201d Scott says. \u201cWe are excited to encourage congregations to get involved in bringing solar power to low-income homeowners across California and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>California Interfaith Power and Light is already providing resources to congregations for energy efficiency improvements and solar installation, and is active in statewide and local policy advocacy, so the partnership is a natural fit.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The faith community is a natural partner in our efforts to create a successful transition to clean, renewable energy that includes everyone,\u201d notes Miguel Reza, GRID Alternatives\u2019 Director of Outreach. \u201cWe couldn&#8217;t be more proud to be partnering with Interfaith Power and Light, who are true leaders in advancing our nation&#8217;s efforts to combat climate change.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In addition to helping low-income families among IPL\u2019s congregations and larger community networks access solar, GRID and IPL hope to bring congregations together to volunteer for installations in their communities, and to learn more about energy efficiency.
