Pitzer College alumnus Devon Hartman ’77 has launched CHERP Solar Works, the world’s first nonprofit solar panel assembly factory, based in Pomona, CA. The project aims to create hundreds of living-wage jobs, provide free solar power to low-income families, and rebuild U.S. solar manufacturing through a national network of community-based micro-factories. Founded by Hartman’s nonprofit CHERP Inc., this initiative unites climate action and economic opportunity, reflecting the lifelong values of activism and sustainability that began at Pitzer College.
