UPPCO customers who meet income guidelines can receive vouchers good for up to eight LED light bulbs this Saturday at Festival Foods.
This energy-saving program runs from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and is sponsored by the Houghton Energy Efficiency Team and Efficiency UNITED.
LED light bulbs use only about one-fifth the electricity of conventional incandescent bulbs and can last 20 years or more.
People living in apartments can receive vouchers for five bulbs; those living in houses or half-houses qualify for eight.
Income guidelines are 200 percent of the poverty level, ranging from $23,340 for a one-person household up to $80,180 for a family of eight.
Simply bring an UPPCO bill and proof of income to qualify.
