Empowering The NEED Project

We are proud of our collaboration with Dominion Energy's "Wind for Students" program and the incredible non-profit, The NEED Project. Together, we've installed two wind turbines at Ocean View Elementary School, and the impact is electric!

These wind turbines are not just structures; they're valuable learning tools that will empower students to explore the wonders of renewable energy.

We are thankful for our exceptional team, whose dedication and hard work brought this project to life.

It's an honor to collaborate with "Wind for Students" and NEED, and we look forward to the positive impact these turbines will have on the next generation.

5th Street Community Garden - Completed Project

Collaborating with The International Rescue Committee/New Roots, Building Goodness, and Bike & Build, we completed the 5th Street Community Garden Project! This garden not only supports food security but also offers a haven for local refugees to cultivate crops from their native lands, enabling them to preserve a feeling of home and cultural attachment. We are grateful to be a part of such a positive initiative in our community.

Design Electric, Inc. collaborated with Building Goodness Foundation and International Rescue Committee in Charlottesville, building a new fence for The 5th Street Community Garden! In phase one of this project, we installed treated posts, donated by Madison Wood Preservers, using equipment that was kindly provided at a discounted rate by Sunbelt Rentals. A big thanks to all who came out and supported this initiative! Saturday was a beautiful example of what can happen when the community comes together!
