Kentucky’s Touchstone Energy Cooperatives #WhoPowersYou contest
Tracie Byers was the 2025 Who Powers You contest winner. Inspired by the story of a newly sober young man who tried to help feed a few of his still-homeless friends, Byers, a Jackson Energy member, received $2,000 for her ongoing efforts to feed and help the homeless in the local area.Photo: Tim Webb Nominate an outstanding person to win
