Programs and resources for our neighbors in need

Help our neighbors in need — it's easy to do it

The FPL Care To Share® program is made possible by the generosity of FPL employees, shareholders and caring customers just like you. Founded in 1994, the program helps individuals and families who are experiencing temporary financial difficulties, such as sudden illness, unexpected unemployment, or another emergency or personal crisis, keep their lights on when they need it most. 

Donating is easy. You can:

  • Donate a monthly fixed amount 
  • Round-up to the nearest amount each month
  • Donate a one-time contribution

Each year, the program helps thousands of families by providing emergency bill payment assistance to eligible customers. The need is greater than ever as so many continue to have difficulty meeting their financial obligations.

Every contribution to Care To Share goes to help customers in need, including those impacted by natural disasters. All of these contributions are distributed to the communities that we serve through a network of nonprofit human-service agencies.

No donation is too small. Together we can make a positive difference in our communities. 

Why donate?

  • Help provide emergency bill payment assistance to eligible customers who are in financial crisis and unable to pay their electric bill.
  • It provides emergency assistance to our neighbors who need help making electrical repairs to their meter can or weather head. The program assists the elderly, the disabled, the sick and others who are experiencing financial hardship.
  • It’s easy! Customers can contribute monthly through two new options on FPL.com – enroll in either a monthly fixed amount or a monthly round-up to the nearest dollar amount. Customers may continue making one-time contributions.
