making a difference

the power of lending a handWe believe that when people help people, communities thrive. To find out more, visit PoweringGreatness.com/PowerOfUs.

You, your family and your community are our neighbors. That connection inspires us to look for ways to give back. Last year, our employees

raised $406,000 for area charities and pitched in 15,000 hours with local nonprofits to make our communities stronger.

1,700 HOURS FOR HEALTH, WELLNESS AND SAFETYEfforts like restocking supplies and preparing ingredients at local food pantries ensure that all community members stay healthy. 70 Pacific Power employees and their family members recently helped the Oregon Food Bank pack 33,000 pounds of food to provide over 27,000 meals for families and individuals.

4,100 HOURS SUPPORT COMMUNITY NONPROFITSWe’re eager to lend a hand to the many charitable organizations making an impact in our communities. For example, 18 Pacific Power employee volunteers worked at a Dress for Success Closet Sale, helping them raise $19,500 in just three days.

7,900 HOURS HELPING EDUCATION AND ENRICHMENT PROGRAMSOur employees help in the classroom and with programs for students like music and athletics. Portland area employee Eric Lien has been helping local school kids become lifelong readers through the SMART program for over 10 years.

1,200 HOURS TOWARD ARTS, CULTURE AND THE ENVIRONMENTAs a company, we do a lot to take care of the environment. Our employees continue the mission on their own time, like Medford area employee, John Mainwaring, who has volunteered 65 hours maintaining Oregon Wilderness Trails, a 160-acre camp in Jackson County, Oregon.

The summer heat in Oregon is no match for a ductless or ducted heat pump. Enjoy year-round comfort and cut energy costs with a heat pump that moves heat in and out of your home. It’s a great choice for homeowners looking for flexibility and efficiency.

Energy Trust of Oregon offers cash incentives to lower the upfront cost of upgrading to a heat pump and assist you on the path to savings.

To find a contractor and see which upgrade is right for you, visit energytrust.org/heating.
