The Food Bank of Northern Nevada is a non-profit organization that provides meals to the needy, ill, and elderly. They are a regional food distribution center and support system for more than 100 different non-profit agencies. The FBNN has been serving their community for almost 30 years.
“The opportunity for the Food Bank to become more energy independent with this solar project translates directly into increased food and services for those who need it most.”
Cherie Jamason, President and CEO
Black Rock Solar installed a 150 kW array at the Food Bank in January, 2010, saving the organization approximately $33,000 annually, enough money to buy 132,000 additional meals for needy families each and every year.
