Emma Young was super interested in solar power, but as a new homeowner with modest income the installation cost put clean energy out of reach. Then she discovered Indiana Solar For All, a nonprofit turning volunteer power into green power. Indiana Solar For All relies on donations and volunteers to bring solar energy to families that otherwise could not afford it – a “sweat equity” model very much like Habitat for Humanity, and in fact Indiana Solar For All has done some solar installations on local Habitat-built homes.
