Help fund a non profit climate project
Your generous gift allows us to give zero interest loans and technical support to community organisations for renewable energy, energy efficiency or electric vehicle projects.
Your gift will be used over and over again as loan repayments return your money to CORENA’s revolving fund. A donation of $100 to our first project has already been re-used many times and achieved over $450 in climate impact!
Another way to help CORENA is to donate to our operating costs. These are essential to achieving CORENA’s aims. This includes staff costs for sourcing and developing new projects, providing free technical support to our loan recipients, insurance, advertising, legal and IT costs.
Donations of $2 or more are tax deductible.
Please note – the amounts for donating a solar panel are indicative and based on quotes for our most recent projects so may change. The price includes a portion of the inverter and installation cost.
Our current projects
We are currently fundraising for Project 59. Goulburn Community Energy Cooperative, a community solar farm and battery project, and Project 57 Hepburn Energy. who are installing a community battery at their wind farm. We also have more projects coming soon so watch this space!
Project 59. Goulburn Community Energy Cooperative
Project 57. Hepburn Energy
We have now met our initial fundraising goal of $100,000 for Hepburn Energy but they have indicated they can use a larger loan if we are able to fundraise more so we will keep donations open for their project.
