Idaho Power’s Community Contributions

The grant program focuses on investing in the economic and social viability of communities served by IPC through financial and in-kind support. This ranges from support for capital fund drives, sponsorship of nonprofit events, to donations like retired company vehicles to emergency-response organizations. IPC outlines five primary categories for contributions:

1. Health and Human Services - Supporting organizations and initiatives that provide essential care and services, focusing on hospitals, youth agencies, senior citizens, and local health organizations.
2. Education - Prioritizing initiatives that ensure the availability of skilled, educated individuals and support academic research and excellence.
3. Culture and Arts - Aiming to enrich community and employee lives through support for the arts, including orchestras, museums, and cultural programs.
4. Civic and Community - Supporting organizations that aim to enhance community management, housing, conservation, and solution development for community issues.
5. Environment and Recreation - Contributing to projects that promote environmental stewardship and expand recreation opportunities. Additionally, IPC accommodates requests that do not fit these categories but have a philanthropic purpose relevant to the company and communities. IPC commits to responding to contribution requests within a reasonable time frame, typically not exceeding 60 days from application submission.
