Thank you!

Your generous contributions to our work amplify the power of solar by conserving land, supporting farmers, advancing sustainable agriculture and feeding families through agrivoltaics.

With your help, we can provide impact this year for farmers already working on more than 5,000 MW of solar, and support many more farmers in transitioning to or beginning new agrivoltaics enterprises!

We are accepting tax-deductible donations through our fiscal sponsor (Fiscal Sponsorship Allies). Monetary contributions may be made via the donation form below or linked throughout our website, or via check, wire transfer, ACH transfer, Donor Advised Fund, or stock donation. Contact us for a pledge form, and list United Agrivoltaics Heartland Alliance in the memo as the fiscal sponsee.

Who Are We?

UAHA was founded in 2024 by a team of farmers, agrivoltaic advocates, food systems practitioners, clean energy policy expert and solar operators. As we grow into 2026, we will onboard additional board and advisory council members, as we grow from mainly volunteer-run to open our agrivoltaic incubator program and support the HARVEST Project work from our UMich Masters student cohort! If you would like to join the Board or Advisory Council in 2026, please fill out this form!
