Case Study: Every Meal powers its mission with solar financing from Sunrise Banks

Every Meal Invests in Solar Power to Power its Hunger-Fighting Mission

Every Meal, a nonprofit fighting child hunger, faced growing energy costs as it expanded its operations to serve over 12,000 students weekly. To free up more funds for its mission, it sought a sustainable and financially sound solution to power its warehouse. With financing from Sunrise Banks, it utilized a Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) loan and the Net Zero Financing program for its project.

Sunrise Banks provided the C-PACE financing that enabled Every Meal to purchase and install a new solar panel array. This solution is projected to significantly reduce long-term energy costs compared to traditional utilities. As a result, Every Meal will have more operational funds to dedicate to purchasing food for children, directly supporting its core mission. Sunrise Banks also provided ongoing expert support throughout the process.
