Pedernales Electric is recognizing and supporting service organizations throughout its 8,100-square-mile distribution area with contributions of $1,000 each through its annual Light the Way program.

Light the Way honors chambers of commerce, economic development organizations, emergency medical services, libraries, fire departments and senior citizen organizations. The groups receiving Light the Way donations help their communities grow and prosper by providing necessary services that benefit all citizens, including PEC members. Pedernales Electric has posted the list of groups receiving donations on www.pec.coop. Contact information for each organization is also on the web site, and PEC encourages its members to consider contributing to and supporting these important resources.

“We want to publicly express our appreciation and support to the men and women involved, thank them for their dedication and encourage others to become involved in groups like these,” said PEC Assistant General Manager Jeanell Davis. “These organizations improve the quality of life in our communities.”

Pedernales Electric employees will personally present each organization’s donation and certificate of appreciation at their local meetings during February. For more information on Light the Way or contact information for the groups, visit www.pec.coop.
