We Give Back
Community is essential to the success of local, family-owned businesses like Solar Dad and Sons and giving back is deeply ingrained in our company’s culture. This includes large-scale projects, like donating a solar energy system to East Islip High School for hands-on education, to ongoing involvement with charities and non-profit organizations. For example, our founder Ken Sanger, is a Boy Scout leader with his Local Troop and incorporates solar technology in his camping trips—allowing Scouts to learn about renewable energy while charging their iPhones!
