Severe flooding in our service area continues to create challenges for power restoration. Flooded roads, landslides, and unstable ground conditions are limiting safe access to damaged equipment for our repair crews. Our natural gas infrastructure may also be affected.

We have temporarily removed Estimated Time of Restoration information from our outage map for affected areas until we can safely assess damage and begin repairs. When our crews gain access and can start assessing damage, they will provide information to be reflected on the outage map as to when to expect restored service. As weather allows, we are using drones and helicopters to patrol unreachable areas by air.

While weather conditions are currently calm, another round of rain and wind is expected on Monday, which may impact our crews' ability to continue restoration work safely as well as result in more outages. We are closely monitoring the situation and will adjust our response as needed. We will have crews ready to respond as any new outages occur.

We appreciate your patience during this time. The safety of our crews and customers is our top priority, and we are committed to restoring power as quickly and safely as possible. We will continue providing updates as our restoration efforts progress.

PSE Foundation awards $800,000 in grants to support organizations helping those in need
The grants will go to 30 organizations helping those without homes who live within our service area

Bellevue, Washington (2/7/2022) The Puget Sound Energy Foundation (PSEF) has announced the recipients of an $800,000 unrestricted grant program that supports several exceptional nonprofit organizations leading the way in the prevention and elimination of homelessness throughout PSE’s 10-county service area.

These awards were based on a new approach utilizing trust-based philanthropy methodology. By developing an evaluation model that works to lessen the burden often placed on organizations doing this vital work, PSEF was able to focus on core aspirations, principles and best practices.

Each unrestricted $25,000 grant is designed to provide financial flexibility for organizations doing this important work. The initiative is anchored by two $50,000 grants focused on homeless youth awarded to Mary’s Place and Northwest Youth Services. The Mary’s Place grant will support the new family shelter in Bellevue, WA.

“We’re excited to partner with the Puget Sound Energy Foundation to open a Kids Club in our new downtown Bellevue Family Center shelter. This space will be a haven for kids to play, read, do homework, and just be kids. We are so grateful for PSEF’s love and support to create a place for kids that’s safe, fun, and uniquely their own,” said Mary’s Place Executive Director Marty Hartman.

The nonprofits receiving grants serve their communities through a broad spectrum of programs aimed at those experiencing homelessness, including providing basic necessities, warm clothing and food, to emergency shelter and even pathways to homeownership.

“We know many in our community can be impacted by homelessness at any time so we wanted to make sure these grants focused on nonprofits that help those most in need to ensure they are safe, sheltered, healthy and have what they need to sustain their immediate needs,” said PSE Foundation Chairman and President Andy Wappler.

As the COIVD-19 crisis continues, the PSE Foundation has demonstrated its ongoing commitment by doubling its traditional charitable budget in both 2020 and 2021 to help support communities with their essential needs.
