FPL SURPRISES SARASOTA/MANATEE COUNTY RESIDENTS WITH FREE CHRISTMAS TREES AND ENERGY-EFFICIENT LIGHT
In partnership with Boys & Girls Clubs of Manatee County, Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) will spread holiday cheer by giving away 200 five-foot Christmas trees and LED energy-efficient tree lights to local residents. The trees and lights will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis and supplies are limited to the first 200 households. FPL will also be on site to share tips and resources to help customers keep their bills as low as possible all season long with simple energy-efficient changes.
For over 70 years, Boys & Girls Clubs of Manatee County’s Annual Christmas Tree Lot has been a community tradition, helping to bring holiday cheer into local homes and create great futures for children and teens. Proceeds from the tree lot support Boys & Girls Club of Manatee County’s enrichment programs such as fine arts, sports, career exploration, workforce readiness, homework help, health and wellness, advocacy and more. The organization serves over 2,500 youth at five Clubs across the county.
FPL will share savings tips as customers get their homes ready for the holidays. They will also show customers how they can save additional money each month with its full suite of tools and resources, including the FPL Holiday House of Savings, where customers can play to learn easy-to-implement tips for lowering energy costs and earn a chance to win an energy-efficiency prize box valued at $150. Plus, with each completed play, FPL will donate $5 to the Care to Share® Electrical Assistance Program, which provides customers facing financial hardship with up to $750 during a 12-month period to help pay utility bills.
