We’re grateful for this opportunity, thankful to our team for working tirelessly, and energized by the support of allies in our community. #548Together “Pritzker announced the plan at the Fillmore Linen Service plant, at 4144 W. Fillmore St. on the city's West Side. The health care linen provider's plant will be the next commercial building in Chicago to be powered by solar energy—with panels and technology installed. The man behind those soon-to-be-installed solar panels—and behind the upcoming training of more than 1,000 new workers—is AJ PATTON, founder and chief executive officer of the 548 Foundation.” https://lnkd.in/gJGXXqpZ

We’re incredibly proud of our work through the 548 Foundation’s Clean Energy Training Program. In just over a year, we’ve graduated 60 students giving them the hard and soft skills necessary to be successful personally and professionally. https://lnkd.in/ekEHMp2v “Instructors like Michael Thomas and Marques Jones, who graduated from the program last year, serve as role models for students. ‘The program re-affirms me,’ Vega said. ‘I never had anyone in my life to be an example like that.’” We’re grateful to our sponsors, partners, and allies for helping us have such a positive impact on our community. #548Together
