With a very generous donation of the CFL bulbs by the forward-thinking folks at Cole Hardware (www.colehardware.com – the BEST hardware store in San Francisco) the event not only helped highlight the benefits of energy conservation but will provide the residents a collective savings of approximately $13,000 in electric bills over the course of one year.
