Helping Hands
Our Helping Hands program gives customers an opportunity to donate to a fund used to assist other local residents in need of paying their electric bill. These can be one-time or recurring donations through RoundUp. When you enroll in RoundUp, your bill will be rounded up to the next nearest dollar each month. For example, if your bill is $62.38, it will be rounded up to $63.00. The extra 62 cents will go to Franklin PUD’s Helping Hands Program.
