[homeles_ot-l] Agency opportunity FW: Hydro Ottawa: "Brighter Tommorows Fund" / « Le fonds Pour un avenir brillant »

[Linda Lalonde]

Kind of ironic considering some people are homeless because of high hydro bills which made them choose between heat and rent!!

Hydro Ottawa recently announced the launch of a new $100,000 funding initiative called the Brighter Tomorrows Fund. The fund, which will be administered in coordination with United Way Ottawa , will enable frontline agencies that serve people who are homeless or at risk of being homeless to invest in energy-efficient technologies or products. By supporting projects such as the replacement of old windows, the installation of high-efficiency heating and cooling systems or the procurement of new and more energy-efficient appliances, the fund will help agencies reduce energy costs, improve their facilities and provide more comfortable living spaces. 

Please distribute this information to your network.  For more information about this fund and to submit a proposal, please visit the Agency Resources section of United Way Ottawa ’s website at http://www.unitedwayottawa.ca/English/Agency%20Resources/Brighter%20Tomorrows%20Fund/Brighter%20Tomorrows%20Fund.php 

If you have any questions about the funding process, you may e-mail btfund at unitedwayottawa.ca

Hydro  Ottawa a annoncé le lancement d’une nouvelle initiative de financement de 100 000 $ appelée « Le fonds Pour un avenir brillant ». Le fonds, que l’entreprise administrera en collaboration avec Centraide Ottawa, aidera les organismes de première ligne qui offrent des services aux sans-abris et aux personnes qui risquent de le devenir à investir dans les technologies et les produits éconergétiques. En appuyant des projets de remplacement de vieilles fenêtres, d’installation de systèmes de chauffage et de climatisation à rendement élevé ou d’achat de nouveaux appareils électroménagers économes en énergie, le fonds aidera ces organismes à réduire leurs coûts d’énergie, à améliorer leurs installations et à offrir des lieux de séjours confortables.
