About the Ontario Evaluation Study

Since 2004, Project Porchlight has been doing what no energy conservation campaign has done before: reaching Canadians at the grassroots level. Delivered through a comprehensive social marketing campaign, Project Porchlight makes energy conservation accessible, relevant, and personal by giving regular people the power to take action in their own communities. Action that matters.

Have you heard about the Canadian Geographic Environmental Awards? Nominations for this green-inspired award have past, but there must be community-based awards and recognitions that take place all over this fine province of ours.

I'm concerned as to what is going to happen in the next few weeks because part of my routine has been to either arrange a trip to Dryden, email the folks in Dryden a few times a week, arrange for others to go to Dryden, pick up shipments from Dryden, hand out bulbs in Dryden, arrange to hand out strings of LED lights in Dryden, and drink copious amounts of coffee in Dryden.

Most of us have seen seasonal LED strings in the past couple of years, either on store shelves or hanging from neighbour's houses and trees. They're the brighter, better holiday lights that not only look more colorful and vivid, but also use about 95% less electricity than your old incandescent-style light strings.

We're baaaaaack!

This time we're handing out bulbs at the local Canadian Tire on Saturday. But not only are we handing out bulbs (did you get your free bulb yet?!) we're also participating in the Christmas light exchange.

Attention all Drydenites!

Did you get a bulb delivered yet? If not, did you pick up your free energy efficient, fabulously bright bulb from Timbermax, Kuznick's, City Hall, or Home Hardware yet?

If not, why not?! Next time you're out & about, be sure to pick up your bulb if you didn't get one yet.

One Change is undertaking a special energy-saving initiative this holiday season, with a Seasonal Light Exchange to take place at retail stores across Ontario. We need volunteers in the locations listed below to make it happen!

Dryden has been bulbified!

Utterly and completely - from one side of town to the other. And it was no small feat, let me tell you. But one thing is for certain, Dryden is totally into energy conservation, and do they ever band together!

Project Porchlight is coming to your community!

This award-winning energy efficiency campaign works from the grassroots in communities across Canada, spreading the message that simple actions can make a big difference when it comes to helping the environment.

Your students and staff can give us a hand!
