Ways we can help your faith community
Working towards sustainability?
Reducing Energy Usage
Reducing energy usage is probably the first, easiest, and most cost-effective way to lower your carbon footprint. Creation Care Ambassadors have implemented energy-saving measures on their own buildings. We can connect you with resources to help you assess your energy consumption and the potential for money-saving reductions.
Heating/Air Conditioning
If your heating and air conditioning system needs to be replaced or if you’re thinking of installing heat pumps on your property, we can direct towards resources that will help.
Solar Energy
If you’re considering solar energy on your property, some of our Creation Care Ambassadors have past experience managing solar projects. We can help you through the sometimes complicated process of funding and installing such projects. We can help you receive the federal tax rebate, normally reserved for for-profit organizations. And we can introduce you to funders and reputable installers.
