Founded in Grande Prairie in 2012 by Chad Mielke, Peace Power has become not only a trusted household name for energy and natural gas needs, but knows the importance of giving back to the communities they do business in.
Having lived in Grande Prairie and now raising a family in Edmonton, he and his wife Lorraine are passionate about ensuring that the communities they have lived in flourish.
Their website says it all: “Service with us allows residents and businesses to save money on their utility bills and give back to the local community at the same time, through our commitment of donating 20% of yearly profits to local community initiatives.”
Chad created the Peace Power Corporation Community Fund in 2015, with the intent for it to be a part of the community impact group of funds that support the charitable activities and charitable organizations with their ever-changing needs within our region. He believes in the connection the Community Foundation has with the organizations we serve and wanted to empower the CF to continue to do this good work.
You can make a difference in our community – not only for today but forever. When you make a donation to the Peace Power Corporation Community Fund, we invest that gift into a permanent endowment fund and the original gift is never spent. Earnings from your gift are distributed to support the Community Impact group of funds that address community priorities and emerging issues to support needs in the community. Donations can be made online here – https://www.canadahelps.org/en/dn/44861 or by calling the Community Foundation at (780) 538-2820.
