Rocky Mountain Power partners with The Salvation Army to provide assistance through the Lend a Hand program to help low-income customers who are finding it difficult to cover the costs of monthly necessities such as energy.
“Rocky Mountain Power customers will find donation envelopes in their November statements and are encouraged to participate in helping neighbors in need. Customers can simply place a check in the enclosed envelope, made out to the Lend a Hand Program, in the amount they choose. Donated funds go directly towards providing energy assistance to Utah households in need,” said Alene Bentley, Rocky Mountain Power regional business manager.
Bentley also explained Rocky Mountain Power will match donations with $2 for every $1 customers contribute. For added convenience, customers can donate a fixed dollar amount each month through their bill by contacting Rocky Mountain Power customer service at 1-888-221-7070. All donations are tax deductible.
“It is our privilege to help veterans, elderly and disabled individuals in our communities who, for one reason or another, are in need of assistance with their utility bills,” said Troy Neal Trimmer, The Salvation Army Salt Lake Basin envoy in charge. “At The Salvation Army, we receive the hugs and tears of appreciation from those who are helped, yet we know that it is only through the generosity of donors that this help is available to our neighbors.”
