As your Energy Advocate, I am proud to be a part of POWER and excited about the difference we are making for Oberlin residents. When we step into a client’s home, no one walks away unhappy. I walk through each house, providing an honest, straightforward assessment of how we can improve energy efficiency, comfort, and affordability. Whether it's scheduling an energy audit, recommending trusted contractors, or guiding clients toward available rebates, we are here to help every step of the way.

We are committed to funding a portion of every residential weatherization project, with up to 100% of the cost covered for low-income households. Our goal is simple: to lower utility bills and make life more affordable for families, so they can focus on other everyday essentials like groceries, clothing, and school supplies.

“My house would stay cold – even when you turned the heat on, it would get colder. Now it stays warm. The landlord was satisfied. It was definitely worth it! I appreciate it and I’m happy.”   - Albert Hodge, POWER Client

At POWER, we exist to improve lives and strengthen our community. But we can’t do it without you.

Will you support POWER’s goal of creating a community full of comfortable, affordable, and healthy homes in the face of a changing climate? Every gift makes a difference:

• $25 can upgrade an entire room's light bulbs to high-efficiency LEDs.
• $50 can provide a family with a complete energy audit.
• $100 can install an insulating heat-blocking shade to improve comfort.

No matter the amount, your contribution will help us continue this essential work.

POWER is run by, supported by, and devoted to our community. Together, we’re building a stronger, more resilient Oberlin, one home at a time. Please consider including POWER in your 2024-2025 giving plan.

Thank you for your generosity and for being part of the solution.

Sincerely,

Greg Jones – Your Energy Advocate
