Energy costs are rising, and many Oberlin families are feeling the strain on their household budgets.

At POWER, we’re working hard to bring relief to our neighbors by making homes more efficient, more affordable, and more comfortable — especially during these challenging economic times. But we can’t do it without your support.

Our mission is simple: no Oberlin family should ever have to choose between heating their home and meeting daily essentials. That’s why we help fund every residential weatherization project we take on—covering up to 100% of costs for low-income households.

Your support creates real, life-changing results.

“… We were able to update our attic & wall insulation while paying less than half of the originally quoted cost. Now, our heating bills are lower in the winter and our house is even cooler in the summer.”  Henry, POWER Client

Here’s what your donation can do:

• $25 equips a household with a programmable thermostat, giving them greater control over comfort and cost.
• $50 provides high-efficiency LED light bulbs for a family’s main living space — saving them money for years to come.
• $150 funds a comprehensive energy audit— the first step in unlocking hidden savings and long-term efficiency.
• $500 supports essential insulation and weatherization, protecting an Oberlin family from our harsh, cold winters and the rising number of extreme-heat days each summer.

POWER is built by this community, sustained by this community, and devoted to serving this community. Together, we’re creating a stronger, more resilient Oberlin—one warm, efficient, and comfortable home at a time.

Please donate today and help us continue this essential work. Thank you for being part of the solution.

Sincerely,

Greg Jones
