December 26, 2012 /3BL Media/ - Households that are having trouble paying their heating bills this winter will receive help as the result of $326,000 in donations Avista is making to Project Share in the utility’s service area of eastern Washington, northern Idaho and parts of southern and eastern Oregon and to 19 human care service organizations in eastern Washington.

The organizations receiving these Project Share and CARES donations are an important safety net.
