Supporting Our Community
Sonoma Clean Power is dedicated to strengthening our communities. As a not-for-profit public agency, we invest our resources in the countless organizations, groups, and individuals who help make the cities and counties we serve healthier, safer, and more equitable places to live. Guided by our Mission, we support our communities by contributing financial sponsorships and our time and expertise.
Community Support Guidelines
Support may include financial sponsorships, in-kind donations, volunteerism, speaking engagements, memberships, and serving on boards or committees which align with our agency’s Mission.
SCP prioritizes support for efforts aligned with these focus areas:
- Basic needs, including food, housing, family support services, and community resilience initiatives (excluding medical-related services)
- Local education, including foundations and initiatives with an emphasis on trades and STEM (including workforce development)
- Greenhouse gas reduction and climate solutions
SCP may also consider support for:
- Key community events in each jurisdiction of our service territory
- Partnerships with our service territory’s business community, including our region’s key industries and economic drivers
SCP does not sponsor religious events or programs, political parties, ballot measures, or organizations whose primary services or products are in opposition to SCP’s Mission. For more information, please see our Community Support Guidelines.
Requesting support from SCP
To submit a request for support, please fill out the form completely. Requests will be considered throughout the year. However, most requests for financial support are considered each January for implementation in the following fiscal year (7/1 - 6/30).
We will evaluate each request carefully based on available priority area, budget, our support categories (listed above), and the effort’s intended impact. Please allow up to 30 days for a response.
