Our goal is to help alleviate the burden of high energy bills and ensure that our customers can stay warm and comfortable in their homes during the colder months. We are appreciative of the private donation that made this grant a possibility, their kindness and generosity will make a real difference to customers of the Berwick Electric Commission.” – Mayor Don Clarke
