Funding Information
The Fund seeks to support projects and services that support these giving values through Civic Engagement and Environmental Impact grants that make a difference in the communities they serve. Requests for these impact grants must exceed $10,000 (USD) to receive consideration. Requests under $10,000 should be directed to the First Solar local office nearest the grant seeker. In principle, requests should be in English. However, applicants may request translation assistance.
Separate from the Civic Engagement and Environmental Impact program, applicants can also request a donation of modules and systems from First Solar. Module applicants are strongly encouraged to consult with an installation technician before submitting the application to ensure the project is feasible. Applicants can also request a monetary donation to assist with installation. Typically, this type of financial support has been distributed in the range of $10,000 to $15,000 (USD).
Eligibility Criteria
Grants will only be awarded to a) nonprofit, charitable organizations that are designated as having tax-exempt status under section 501(c)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Service code or b) organizations capable of demonstrating the ability to fulfill the charitable purpose of a grant award. The Fund may limit the number of requests accepted by any one requestor at its discretion.
