How to help
Thank you for considering supporting the work of Black Rock Solar! We have an ambitious goal for 2008 of building 500kilowatts of low or no cost solar across Nevada, and to do that we’re going to have to raise considerable funds to cover the difference between the rebates from Sierra Pacific, and the actual cost of the installs.
First, you should keep in touch, by getting on our email update list here.
Then, if you can, make a cash donation to help fund our work! We’re happy to announce that the Black Rock Arts Foundation has agreed to act as our fiscal sponsor while our application to the IRS for formal 501 (c) 3 tax deductible non-profit recognition is being processed. That means donations to BRS are tax deductible to the extent allowed, if made via BRAF.
To make a donation, please mail it to Black Rock Solar, c/o Black Rock Arts Foundation, 1900 3rd Street, SF CA 94158. Or, if you don’t want/need the deduction, just send it to the same address attention Black Rock Solar. Or, use Paypal:
Our estimates are that every dollar Black Rock Solar receives will turn into more that $7 of clean, renewable energy, a great return on your support! And we also estimate we’ll spend only 12% of donations on administration and overhead, meaning more of your donation will go where you want it to.
If financial donations aren’t possible right now, perhaps you can help with something off our wish list below?
And, of course, the easier way to help is to tell your friends about us and our work!
Thanks again for your support of Black Rock Solar and our mission to bring renewable energy to every part of our society.
