Nonprofits: Funds Available through REC’s The Power of Change
Monday | February 6, 2023

REC invites nonprofits to apply for funding from The Power of Change. The deadline to apply for the latest round of funding is Feb. 10.

Twice a year, The Power of Change supports organizations in REC’s service area who need funding for their initiatives.

REC members support The Power of Change by rounding their electric bill to the next whole dollar each month, selecting a fixed amount to donate each month or making a one-time donation.

“One of our core values is caring, and a significant way we demonstrate how we care for our communities is the collaboration with our members to raise funds to support local organizations serving those in need,” said Casey Hollins, Managing Director—Communications and Public Relations. “We look forward to celebrating this year’s recipients and encourage all organizations to consider applying. The process is simple and the donations from our members can go a long way.”

The deadline to apply for funds is 5 p.m. on Feb. 10, 2023.
