Just one of the many utility bill assistance programs available to struggling customers is Yampa Valley Electric Caring Consumers. This option is combined with other forms of financial support, ranging from payment plans to free energy conservation measures. Not only can struggling customers apply to Caring Consumers, but (when the time is right) they can give back and donate to it. Or really any customer of Yampa Valley Electric can contribute to this program, and 100% of the money raised goes to help pay bills.
The program is paid for using donations and contributions. The funds come from many different sources, ranging from customers to employees of the company. All of the donations (100% of the money collected) goes to pay utility bills, with the money staying local. It is often used by customers in your local community, so the concept is Neighbors Helping Neighbors.
In addition to contributions maybe coming from customers, employees and others, there are also matching grants from Yampa Valley Electric (YVEA). This is what their foundation does. This means the company, using corporate funds, increases the total value of the money collected so that more people can be assisted. They may match the Yampa Valley Electric Caring Consumers donations only up to a certain dollar amount though.
