ITS TIME FOUNDATION
PAYING IT FORWARD IN THE PACIFIC PV FOR POSITIVITY AND PROSPECTS ITS TIME FOUNDATION is using PV to tackle a significant issue on remote Pacific Islands at schools that have no electricity or rely on dirty diesel generators. To date the Foundation has successfully installed 20 stand-alone solar PV systems and equipment for five more systems is currently being shipped over. The PV systems provide clean, free energy for lighting and computers as well as savings on diesel fuel costs

which frees up cash flow for more computers. Thanks to PV systems made possible as a result of the generosity of Its Time supporters, the kids are getting a modern education which is literally transforming their life prospects. Its Time is determined to maintain momentum. Earlier this year the Foundation launched a Business Partner Program that’s attracting new supporters ranging from start-up installers to manufacturers. Its Time Founder Rob Edwards said “Businesses get involved because they want to make the world a better place by helping kids and contributing to a fairer, cleaner world. These businesses have become part of a great corporate social responsibility story to share with customers and staff.” Partners have access to a range of resources for their business and social media. www.iitime.org/partner-list Rob commented “Feedback on the partner program has been really positive and, fortuitously, many positive B2B interactions have resulted. These include a substantial equipment enquiry, residential solar referrals and even some website consulting. It’s a great feeling that, in our small way, we can give something back in the partner relationships.”
All businesses are welcome to join the Foundation’s monthly Virtual Drinks. An open invitation to a dynamic 45-minute zoom featuring: • A short update on Pacific Island PV projects • A 5-minute segment ‘What’s new in renewables’ by an industry expert, and • A 20 minute ‘upskilling’ presentation by a top-line business speaker. Sessions are free and without obligation, the Foundation simply hopes that if people gain value they will share the story. Register here: www.iitime.org/drinks
