Solargain is excited to announce our new partnership with The Hunger Project Australia. For customers of Perth-based Smarter Sustainable Homes consultants ‘Solar Dwellings’, solar is not just an investment into the sustainability of their homes and the wider environment.
For every solar package purchased from Solargain $200+ is donated to The Hunger Project Australia. The Hunger Project Australia is a not-for-profit organisation that partners with disadvantaged women and girls by investing in their future. Programmes such as education, microfinance, agriculture, empower participants with the skills, knowledge, and resources they need for a sustainable end to hunger.
