Rocky Mountain Power encouraging customers to help struggling families keep the lights on and pantries stocked

Rocky Mountain Power is encouraging customers to join the utility in helping struggling families stay warm and fed this holiday season.

“It’s been a priority for our company to reach out and make a difference in the communities where we all live and work,” said George Humbert, director of customer and community. “We’re inviting our customers to join with us in those efforts.”

The company is currently providing matching donations for those who support the Salvation Army’s Lend a Hand program, which helps limited-income customers keep their power on and their homes warm.

This week Rocky Mountain Power also donated $20,000 to food banks along the Wasatch Front including Tabitha’s Way in Utah County, Catholic Community Services in Weber County, Open Doors in Davis County and Salt Lake Community Action Food Program Centers in Salt Lake County.

“We are grateful for those willing to join us in supporting organizations that help those struggling in our communities and appreciate the opportunity to make an impact,” Humbert said.

Customers who need bill assistance themselves can call Rocky Mountain Power representatives at 1-888-221-7070 to get help with payment plans and be directed to other agencies that may assist them.
