Many living expenses gone up in recent years which has made it difficult for families to keep up with expenses. Peninsula Light Company can help.<\/p>\n Our Project Help program is designed to help income-qualifying families with up to $250 of support each year. The program provides funds through a partnership with Key Peninsula Community Services to offset those who need assistance with their electric bill.<\/p>\n The economy is still hurting, and the need continues to rise. We are looking for additional support from the community. The best part is, we will match your donations dollar for dollar. The round-up campaign is the newest way members can contribute. On average, those who enroll will only add about $6 to their annual bill. Those donations can go a long way to help neighbors who sometimes have to choose between food and heat.<\/p>\n Since last year, more than 1,400 people have signed up to donate funds, bringing the total number of supporters to about 1,750. Our goal is to encourage 10,000 of our members\u00a0\u2014 one-third of our service area\u00a0\u2014 to sign up for the Project Help Round-Up campaign.<\/p>\n You can help by make a donation to Project Help<\/span><\/u><\/a> or calling our Member Services Department at (253) 857-5950<\/a>.<\/p>\n About 550 Gig Harbor-area families have benefited from an annual average of $110,000 through Project Help since 2009.
