Save MC² Foundation, Inc. was created with a simple but powerful belief: when we save energy, we invest in a better future. Our organization exists to help individuals, families, and communities understand energy use, reduce waste, and adopt smarter, more sustainable practices that benefit both people and the planet.
We focus on education, practical solutions, and community-driven impact. By sharing clear information, useful tools, and innovative approaches, we aim to make energy efficiency achievable and affordable for everyone—no matter where they are starting from.
Like many good ideas, Save MC² Foundation began with a conversation. Originally, our founders planned to name the organization “Save Energy.” However, that name was already taken. During a brainstorming session, one of our founders asked a simple question: “Why don’t we use Einstein?”
At first, everyone was confused—Einstein? How?
Then he explained.
Albert Einstein’s famous equation for energy is E = MC². If MC² represents energy, then saving MC² means saving energy.
That connection sparked something special. Not only was the name meaningful and creative, but it also reflected the science behind energy itself. As it turned out, the name Save MC² Foundation and the website were available—making the idea both symbolic and practical. And just like that, our name was born.
Our name represents more than a clever idea. It reflects our commitment to:
Science-based solutions
Smart innovation
Clear, practical education
Real-world impact
We believe sustainability doesn’t have to be complicated. When people understand energy, they are empowered to make better choices—for their homes, their communities, and the environment.
As a growing nonprofit, we are actively building partnerships, developing educational programs, and creating digital tools to support energy efficiency. While we are still early in our journey, our commitment is strong and our vision is long-term.
Save MC² Foundation, Inc. is here to help turn knowledge into action, and action into lasting change.
