Matt’s Place Foundation Enphase donated microinverters to Matt’s Place Foundation in Spokane, Washington, to support building a living space for families contending with Lou Gehrig’s disease. This eco- friendly state of the art interactive smart home is designed speci昀椀cally for ALS patients and their families and is meant to help those living with ALS lead more independent lives. Vision Warriors Foundation Enphase teamed up with the Vision Warriors Foundation to donate microinverters to power housing for homeless veterans in the Saint Louis area. Located on a 5-acre property in the heart of St. Louis, the Veterans Community Project (VCP) campus will consist of 50 tiny homes ranging from 240–320 square feet and a VCP Village Community Center. The community center will serve as a “base camp,” providing case management services, education, health and wellness programming, and social activities for veterans living in the village. The Footprint Project After the Maui wild昀椀re disaster, Enphase support allowed Footprint Project to stand up its largest microgrid mobilization ever.

Empowered by Light Enphase joined Empowered by Light to launch a one-year pilot workforce development program in Juncos, Puerto Rico in an e昀昀ort to help meet the growing demand for solar installers in the region. The program seeks to train 60 people during the 昀椀rst year, using GRID’s Installation Basics Training (IBT) curriculum that consists of three weeks and 120-hours of interactive classroom learning and hands-on solar training labs with equipment.
