The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection announced last week that it was awarding a coveted "Energy Harvest" grant in the amount of $500,000 to Berks County Community Foundation for our building project! We received the news from The Community Foundation's good friend, State Senator Mike O'Pake who advocated for us in Harrisburg.
The Energy Harvest Program initiated by Governor Rendell provides key support to projects like ours. It's a very, very competitive process. Not only was The Community Foundation's project selected, we received the maximum amount permitted under the program.
A special thanks to Senator O'Pake and our friends at DEP for this important affirmation of our project. You can click here to see a copy of Senator O'Pake's letter to us.
