We don't just talk about change; we make it happen
At Solarity, we believe in action, not just words. That's why we are proud to present our annual Community Impact Report – a testament to our unwavering commitment to the communities of Yakima and Kittitas Counties, as well as the surrounding areas we proudly serve.
From providing our members with keys to their forever homes to supporting critical causes through donations and sponsorships, our journey this past year was all about making a positive difference. But that's not all. Our incredible staff also dedicated their time and energy to volunteer initiatives that warmed hearts and brightened lives.
We look forward to sharing the remarkable stories and achievements that define Solarity's role as a force for good in our neighborhoods for many years to come.

Solarity employees help Yakima Mom build a home
At Solarity, we believe everyone should have a place to call home. And when we learned Yakima Mom, Kristen Smith, was short on volunteer hours to build her home through Habitat for Humanity, about two dozen of our team members traded their work shift for a tool belt and got to hammering over a two-day stretch.
In all, Solarity employees donated 92 hours to help Kristen build her future home for herself and her two children with high needs. Because of the time needed to care for her children, Kristen was struggling to donate the required hours needed to be eligible for the home through Habitat for Humanity.
Habitat for Humanity is a global nonprofit organization that helps people either build or improve a place they can call home. The organization operates on the belief that "affordable housing plays a critical role in strong and stable communities." By helping to build the home, alongside volunteers, the owners are able to pay an affordable mortgage. Solarity has partnered with Habitat for Humanity before, and it is an employee favorite when it comes to giving back to our community.
From hanging drywall to installing a fence, our team thoroughly enjoyed helping Kristen get the needed volunteer hours so she can eventually call the place home. Kristen is due to move into the home in the early Summer with her two children. We wish her the very best!
