SolarYpsi’s Nonprofit Project has been highlighted in Home Power Magazine

SolarYpsi’s Nonprofit Project has been highlighted in Home Power Magazine. Early in 2015, a benefactor contacted SolarYpsi wanting to fund more PV installations in Ypsilanti. Since SolarYpsi is not a 501(c)3, it was determined that the best course of action would be to put together a list of nonprofits interested in having a PV system and the donor would choose from the list. The donor contributed a total of $93,000 for 5 kW PV systems at a public library, two community centers, a public high school, a health center, and a city-owned carport.
