We’re celebrating 15 years of MCE by recognizing our community partners who have made our success possible. Kicking off our “15 Faces for 15 Years” series is 12th District Assembly Member Damon Connolly, a founding MCE Board Member & former board chair.
When founding MCE Chairman Charles McGlashan passed away in 2011, Damon stepped into the board chair role during a moment of loss and uncertainty. He not only helped steer MCE through this transition but positioned the organization for the critical growth and impact that followed.
From day one, Damon brought unwavering commitment to MCE’s mission.
Damon’s personal resilience became MCE’s backbone during tough times, proving that transformative work requires steadfast resolve to approach and thrive amidst challenges. Thank you, Assemblymember Connolly, for your leadership!

“From day one as a founding board member, I immersed myself in MCE’s mission. With all transformative work, you’ve got to fight and see it through. I’m inspired by MCE continuing to lead while serving the community — for people and the planet.”

"一得知 MCE 要在里士满建造太阳能发电厂,我就给所有认识的人打电话,询问如何才能受聘参与该项目。我想让我的社区变得更美好,还有什么比在我家后院建造太阳能发电厂更好的方式呢?在 MCE Solar One 和 RichmondBUILD 工作无疑改变了我的生活。现在我为里士满BUILD工作,回馈社区,同时我也回到了大学。我没想到自己会在这里,这是肯定的。我希望自己能成为他人的一盏明灯。
