Happy Energy Efficiency Day! 💡🏡

Improving energy efficiency does not always mean making big changes. Sometimes, simple everyday steps can help you use less energy and save money on your bills. Easy ways to improve energy efficiency include:

🍽️ Running a full dishwasher load uses water and energy more efficiently.
💧 Washing your clothes in cold water reduces the energy needed to heat water.
💡 LED light bulbs less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs and last longer.

If you would like more tips to make your home more efficient, help understanding your energy bills, or information about programs available in your area, Empower Me Energy Mentors are here to help with practical advice and multilingual support. 🤗

We closed out September with some great workshop moments across Washington and British Columbia! 🙌💡

In Seattle, we celebrated two first workshops! 🎉 Program Coordinator Edric led his first Empower Me workshop with seniors at GenPride, and Energy Mentor Gabriel delivered a bilingual Spanish and English workshop with Southwest Youth And Family Services, with support from Energy Mentor Lina.

Meanwhile in Surrey, Energy Mentor Lubna led an Energy Savings Workshop with DIVERSEcity settlement workers, who support newcomer communities across the city in 12 languages.

Across all three workshops, participants brought their own experiences with energy and plenty of questions, with lots of “I didn’t know that!” moments along the way. We loved seeing how engaged each group was and can’t wait to see what October brings!

Our Ontario team was back in Malton, Mississauga, for our second in-person Energy Savings Workshop with the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority! 🙌💡

Approximately 40 community members joined our English and Punjabi Energy Savings Workshops, delivered simultaneously so participants could learn, ask questions, and join the conversation in their language. A big shoutout to Esh*ta for leading the Punjabi session, Hilal for leading the English session, and our newest Energy Mentor, Jhonatan, for supporting both workshops! ✨

We were also joined by the City of Mississauga - Municipal Government, and CLEAResult, who provided Energy Saving Kits for participants. Thank you to everyone who helped make the day such a success. We’re excited to keep bringing accessible energy education to more communities across the GTHA. 🌱

The Empower Me Seattle team spent last Saturday out in the community alongside Seattle Department of Neighborhoods Community Liaisons in support of Seattle City Light! ⚡

Our Energy Mentors shared their local knowledge to help identify places where public EV chargers could be most useful and accessible for Seattle communities, as part of Washington State’s Clean Fuel Standard initiative. 🚗 🔋

It was a productive and collaborative day, and we’re proud to be part of work that brings community voices into Seattle’s clean transportation future!! 💚

Empower Me joined the Clean Mobility Project’s Ride & Drive Day event in Vancouver last weekend, where residents, neighbours, families, and passersby came together to learn more about electric vehicles, clean transportation, and energy. 🚗⚡

Energy Mentors Ayman, Mehdi, and Patty spent the day meeting attendees, sharing practical energy-saving tips, and answering questions at the Empower Me table. The afternoon brought the community together for EV test drives, community booths, food, and plenty of great conversation and new connections! 💚

The Clean Mobility Project is a partnership between Create Climate Equity, Kambo Energy Group, BC Indigenous Housing Society and Aboriginal Housing Management Assn with delivery support from Modo and TransLink, working together to make clean transportation more accessible for affordable housing residents.

A huge thank you to the Clean Mobility Project team for inviting us to be part of the day!

Our Ontario team hosted an Energy Savings Workshop with Building Multicultural Communities last week, bringing together 16 women who work as school counsellors across more than 50 schools in Peel Region. 🙌💡

Many participants shared first-hand experiences of how differently energy can be used and understood around the world, from electricity shortages in Cuba to very different attitudes toward energy conservation in Michigan. The group used these experiences to talk about how energy is used in Ontario and simple ways to save energy at home.

The group left excited to share what they learned with their school communities this September,helping connect more Peel families with Empower Me. ✨

Empower Me is on a roll this month in Seattle! ⚡From packed workshops to lively community events, August was full of great conversations, new connections, and strong partnerships across the city!

Our team delivered Energy Savings Workshops with Pan African Services, Asian Counseling and Referral Service (ACRS) in Kent, and the Seattle Chinatown Int'l. Dist. Preservation and Development Authority, connecting with over 100 residents around energy bills, household energy use, and utility assistance programs.

We also joined several events, including SopaSupa, Celebrate Little Saigon, and a back-to-school event with Friends of the Children, which created even more opportunities to meet families, seniors, and community members and answer their questions, share resources, and help the community learn more about the programs available to them.

☀️ A huge shoutout to all the Energy Mentors for bringing so much energy, flexibility, and care to such a busy month, and thank you to all of our community partners and everyone who joined us! 💛

What a summer Saturday in South Park! ☀️🎉
Earlier this month, the Seattle Empower Me team spent the day at SopaSupa, a neighbourhood celebration celebrating South Park's Mexican-American community! Held alongside the Duwamish River Valley Festival, the day had it all: lucha libre, Duwamish music, Aztec dancers, a brass marching band, and community-based organizations and city agencies from across Seattle.

We spent the day sharing information about energy savings and connecting with the many incredible partner organizations and community members who showed up. It was a great opportunity to be part of a neighbourhood event that brings people, culture, and community resources together. 🏡💚

Thank you to everyone who came by our table and to all the organizations making South Park such a vibrant, connected community.

⭐ Recently, our Calgary team delivered an Energy Savings Workshop for the Women in Need Society (WINS). The group of participants came ready with questions and personal experiences, including: “I don’t know why my bills are so high” and “In my country, we never had to use a space-heating system.”

🏙️ For many newcomers, understanding how heating systems, energy use, and household bills work in Canada can make a meaningful difference. Our workshops are designed to make that information practical, approachable, and easy to apply at home.

After the workshop, the Program Facilitator at WINS shared that participants appreciated how easy the information was to understand and how practical the tips were for their everyday lives.

Thank you to WINS for welcoming us and for continuing to create opportunities to bring this valuable information to more newcomers and community members across Calgary! We’re grateful to be part of these conversations making energy education more accessible, one workshop at a time 💗

The Empower Me BC team recently delivered its first Mandarin-language Energy Savings Workshop with DIVERSEcity’s Chinese Settlement team. 22 participants joined us to learn about energy bills, household energy use, and practical ways to lower costs! 👏

One participant brought some extremely high utility bills from last winter that she had been holding on to, without clear answers about why her costs were so high. During the workshop, she learned how everyday choices like her thermostat settings and hot water use were affecting her energy consumption. By the end of the session, she told the Empower Me team that she finally understood her bills and felt more confident about what she could do differently at home. 🏡

Together with DIVERSEcity, we were able to create a setting where participants felt comfortable bringing real questions about their homes, bills, and energy use to the conversation. ✨
