For congregations:
Pass It Forward!
NY IP&L’s Pass It Forward program provides $100 toward the cost of a NYSERDA energy audit, which is the entire cost for most congregations. In return, we ask only that you “pass it forward.” In other words, locate another congregation that would also like $100 for a NYSERDA energy audit and pass the $100 on to them as you see your energy savings add up!
Jonesville
United Methodist Church in Jonesville, NY has generously given a gift in
support of our Pass It Forward campaign. Thank you, Jonesville UMC!
Other member benefits
When you become a member of New York Interfaith Power & Light, you will receive information about how you can implement the action or actions you pledged to take. You'll also receive periodic newsletters that will provide additional information about other actions you can take to save energy and money.
Of course, the biggest benefit is that you will be a good steward of God's gift of energy. You'll be preventing further global warming and power plant pollution, and you'll be working for justice:
- Justice for people all over the world who are already feeling the effects of global warming;
- Justice for future generations who face a future of more frequent and intense weather events, flooding, drought, and other catastrophes; and
- Justice for all creation.
