Alabama experienced record-setting high temperatures last week, a notable change from the prolonged freezing temperatures in January. Extreme temperatures cause many people to use more energy than usual and can lead to higher bills.

Today the Alabama Power-affiliated Alabama Business Charitable (ABC) Trust Fund announced it is donating $100,000 to Project SHARE and the Salvation Army.

“This winter has been one of extremes, from brutally cold to record-setting highs, and both take their toll on low-income families in particular,” said Dorothy Crosby, president of the ABC Trust and the energy services coordinator for the Jefferson County Committee on Economic Opportunity. “We want to do what we can to help customers pay their bills.” ABC Trust is giving $50,000 to Project SHARE (Service to Help Alabamians with Relief on Energy) to help low-income customers who are age 60 and older and/or disabled.
