PSE aims to help families and the environment through ‘Powerful Partnerships’

January 15, 2019 By The Suburban Times

Puget Sound Energy continues its commitment to help the environment and human services organizations through its “Powerful Partnerships” program. This year, PSE selected 24 nonprofit organizations across its 6,000 square mile service area to receive $200,000.

In addition to providing funding to the organizations, PSE will also partner with them to educate their clients, employees and donors on ways to save energy and money on their bills, as well as safety and emergency preparedness. These partnerships allow PSE to enhance community engagement and awareness by focusing its giving efforts. 

“Puget Sound Energy cares about our communities and the environment, so teaming up with organizations committed to the same made sense,” said PSE Vice President of Communications Andy Wappler. “Through these partnerships, not only can we provide funds to support the organizations’ missions but also education about creating a better energy future.”

PSE has announced its commitment to reduce its carbon footprint 50 percent by 2040 and help our customers do their part. By partnering with community organizations, PSE seeks to engage more people in the mission.
