OUR MISSION IS OUR MEMBERS

from Inland Power's 2022 Annual Report

ROOTS

Just as neighbors banded together to form cooperatives back in the 1930s to bring electricity to the rural areas, the Community Foundation allows co-op members and organizations today to reach out for worthy causes and work together in helping others. IN 2022, THE INLAND POWER COMMUNITY FOUNDATION WAS ABLE TO SUPPORT GROUPS LIKE ELEVATIONS, HABITAT FOR HUMANITY AND CHESTER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, JUST TO NAME A FEW. We also funded over 15 scholarships and provided add-on support to nearly 100 4-H and FFA livestock showmen.

As an Inland Power member, you have a unique opportunity to support the Inland Power Community Foundation, which is a program that provides financial support to organizations in our service territory, as well as individual Inland Power members.

For some background, the Operation Round Up program was founded upon the same principle that led to the creation of electric cooperatives over 85 years ago—people helping people. We know that there is great need throughout our service territory, and we wanted to be able to make a larger impact, which is why the Inland Power Community Foundation was formed and the funds from Operation Round Up were incorporated into the Foundation.

Inland Power is also proud to work closely with the Spokane Neighborhood Action Partners (SNAP) to offer energy assistance. In 2022, 511 grants for a total of $246,299 were allotted to Inland Power members through SNAP’s energy assistance program. We are very grateful for our partnership with SNAP and the positive impact we can make on our community together.

We would not be able to give back in this way if not for your generous support. It is your donations that help make this possible. Thank you to all of you who have given to this program.
