**Edit: The Holidays Came Early!
During our monthly live stream last night we mentioned that our Apollo H-2 Annual Holiday Ornament For Charity would go live on Wednesday, but it is ready for launch now! This ornament is a blast to make, and it is nice to give back to the community that has helped us grow! Thank you for all of your support!
100% of the profit is donated to charity!
Charities we support with the profits from H-2:
CASA of Lexington
- Provides volunteers and resources to advocate on behalf of the best interest of children in the family court system due to abuse or neglect
Open Home Foundation
- Apollo Automation is proud to back the Open Home Foundation. A portion of profits from every H-2 sold helps protect the values of privacy, choice, and sustainability in the smart home by supporting open source projects like Home Assistant and open connectivity standards.
