Since then, grants have been awarded quarterly.
Any organization in Coast Electric’s service area can apply for funding. Charitable organizations in those three counties can apply for a grant up to $10,000 until the Dec. 20 deadline. Applications can be submitted through the Coastal Electric Power Association’s website.
