Community Reinvestment
Our long-term community development strategy is designed to break the cycles of poverty, unemployment, under employment and incarceration in our Urban Communities across the nation while simultaneously advancing communities resilience by providing access to green infrastructure solutions and clean and renewable energy.
Through our resiliency hubs we are able to provide an immediate resource and assistance to residents in the recovery of natural emergency events. These hubs are a trusted resource within the community. Power52 has also been diligent in educating the community on their role in the green environment as well as providing them with energy efficiency packs, fresh food, and water during times of hardship.
