Plant Shade Trees or Use Shade Sails

🌳 Shade makes a difference.

Trees, shade sails, and other outdoor shade features can significantly reduce the amount of heat entering your home—especially around windows.

More shade means a cooler, more comfortable home.

These cooling tips are brought to you by SNAP and the Gonzaga Climate Institute.

🔥 "We'll Be Here for

When the Spokane Area Fires changed lives across our community, SNAP stepped up. From delivering clean air purifiers and energy assistance to guiding families through recovery, our team answered the call:
📞 1,300+ calls answered by our Resource Team
🤝 550+ direct engagements at the Disaster Assistance Center
💨 600+ air purifiers distributed to smoke-impacted families
Behind every single one of those numbers is a neighbor who needed support.
Watch this message from Amber Johnson, incoming CEO of SNAP, as she reflects on our relief response and SNAP’s ongoing commitment to our community.
