When the Center for Corporate and Community Education at MVCC - CCED reached out to ask if we were interested in working with their interns this summer, we jumped at the chance...and we're so glad we did! What a great group of bright individuals. They provided us with some excellent insight and recommendations. Thank you for choosing Riverhawk as one of your sites to conduct an energy audit!

We're thrilled to announce that last week, our 12 incredible interns successfully completed their New York Power Authority (NYPA) Internship program!

We want to express our deepest gratitude to our energy audit site partners: Helmont Mills, Saranac, and Riverhawk Company. Your participation played a crucial role in the success of this internship program.

A heartfelt thank you to Syracuse University's Industrial Assessment Center for providing top-notch training and mentorship. Your commitment to guiding our interns through the audit process and offering valuable shadowing experiences was truly invaluable.

A special shoutout to Pete Bailey and Rafael Calderon from NYPA for their outstanding support and guidance throughout this journey. Your expertise and dedication made a tremendous impact!
