Dear friends,<\/p>\n

\u201cImmigrant volunteer helps low-income families harness solar energy,\u201d<\/em> — that was the headline in an article <\/a>in the San Diego Union Tribune a few weeks ago about Mohamed Hauter, a volunteer Team Leader in our San Diego office. He was out with us on World Refugee Day, leading a crew of volunteers who were all Syrian refugees, gaining solar installation skills while giving back to the community that had welcomed them. Mohamed himself is an immigrant from Yemen, whose family settled in Fresno in 2002 in the wake of 9-11 — a charged time for Muslims in America. Today he is a successful engineer with a young daughter who takes time off work on a regular basis to help families that remind him of his own.<\/p>\n

Community is one of the core values we hold as an organization, and we see it in action every day. People like Mohamed and the crew of refugees, neighborhood residents, other community organizations, donors, local leaders, all coming together to create solutions. This kind of collaboration, mutual investment and hard work is what makes our neighborhoods, communities and cities great, and we\u2019re incredibly proud to be a part of it. Thanks to each and every one of you for being part of our community.<\/p>\n
