Don't let your backcountry end up looking like this.

The Mission of the POC Fund is to stop the Powerlink and at the same time help San Diego County achieve its long-term goal of local power generation and distribution of renewable and clean energy.

The “Protect Our Communities Fund” was recently established by a group of local landowners and Communities United for Sensible Power (CUSP) to mount a major campaign to defeat SDG&E’s proposed transmission line, the “Sunrise Powerlink”.

“Our goal is to raise $1.5 million dollars in 2007 and we have been fortunate to secure over the first $600k in just a few short months. This shows the deep concern felt throughout the region,” said Michael Pinto, the fund’s co-chair.

Funds raised will be used for legal representation, technical support,
and focused community outreach and advocacy. Managing the fund are backcountry residents, Michael Pinto and Denis Trafecanty. They also chair the Fundraising Committee and are each major donors.

“If this line is approved, it will be a travesty for all of San Diego,” Katy Moretti, owner of Eagle Peak Escrow in Ramona. “We all need to support this Fund with as much money as we can afford. Every individual donation counts.”

Create a better energy future.
