The Project
Life Services Alternatives (LSA) provides exceptional community living and empowering programs for adults with disabilities. Guided by the belief that every person with developmental disabilities deserves to live a rich and fulfilling life within the community, LSA delivers 24/7 care and support in warm, inclusive neighborhood homes in Campbell, CA.
Central to LSA's approach are personalized programs focused on skill-building, designed to greatly enhance the quality of life for their residents. This dedicated support not only helps individuals with disabilities navigate their daily lives but also enables them to realize their full potential. In alignment with its mission, LSA is also committed to environmental sustainability, demonstrated by the installation of solar energy at one of its residential facilities, which serves six adults with developmental disabilities.
BQuest is proud to support Hammond Climate Solutions' Solar Moonshot Program, providing grants that enable nonprofits across the United States to transition to clean energy. Through the generosity of a BQuest grant, alongside other funding sources, Life Services Alternatives has installed a 14.6 kW solar system. This system not only generates savings that directly benefit LSA residents but also contributes to a healthier environment for all.
What They Are Saying
"We at Life Services Alternatives are committed to using solar power in all our homes. We are very appreciative about receiving a grant from the Solar Moonshot Program to install a solar system at our Hatikvah Home. This enables us to reduce air pollution and our dependence on non-renewable energy and to operate the home in a fiscally responsible manner. Hatikvah is home to 6 adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities."
- Dana Hooper, CEO of Life Services Alternatives
