Community Energy Fund
Established in 1982, this primarily customer-funded program has paid out more than $3 million to assist local people in need. Formerly known as Project PRIDE, the program was renamed Community Energy Fund in October 2024.
Thank you so very much from our family.
I just wanted to extend our heartfelt thanks for paying our PUD bill. We are so thankful and can breathe a little easier now.

Thank you so much
I would like to thank you all for your support towards me during my lowest moments. You don’t know the positive impact it has created in me. I’ll forever be at the forefront in helping when I am blessed.
