Energy Assistance With Fuel Fund of Maryland

June 29, 2011

During the spring of 2011 we began our partnership with the Fuel Fund of Maryland; an energy assistance nonprofit helping at-risk families in Maryland.  They provide resources to these families for heat and home utility needs.  This is a very important issue during Maryland’s harsh winters and summers.  Through a social media based fundraising campaign we were able to help raise awareness for their organization.  Their cause is a natural fit for our goal of creating home energy solutions and helping households become more energy efficient.  We are pleased to announce that our first social fundraising campaign was a success!

Along with Fuel Fund of Maryland, we ran a social fundraising campaign designed to boost awareness for both organizations.  For each new Facebook “like” and Twitter follower we received through April 19^th to June 1^st we donated $1 to the Fuel Fund of Maryland.  We spread the word through our corporate email communications, social media outlets and meeting the public at live events like Green DC Day.

The money generated through this campaign went directly to the Fuel Fund to support their cause and programs such as Watt Watchers.  A program helping students and homeowners recognize how they are using energy and what they can do to curb that usage.  Visit their website to stay abreast of any upcoming events or webinars.

It was our pleasure to work with Fuel Fund of Maryland and we look forward to long and fruitful relationship.
