New Energy Equity, a solar financier and developer based out of Annapolis, MD, created the Lift As We Climb Foundation, a 501C3 charitable organization, as a way to give back and lift up local communities. Each year, New Energy Equity donates a portion of profits from the company, based on achieving goals set throughout the year. The foundation deploys these funds to support non-profits dedicated to leaving behind a better world within their community, including the installation of solar energy projects, education, and training.
