A Culture of Giving Back: Employee Giving
Giving back is part of who we are and what we do as Edison employees. Whether volunteering at community events, raising money for favorite nonprofits, or taking advantage of the company’s donation match to nonprofit organizations and the Energy Assistance Fund, our employees go above and beyond to brighten our communities with more than light.
Facts at a Glance
Matching Gift Program
Edison encourages and supports our employees giving back to our communities by offering a dollar-for-dollar company match to nonprofit organizations and schools through our Matching Gift Program. The company matches up to $2,000 annually per employee for donations made to all eligible 501(c)(3) nonprofit, educational, and (170)(c)(1)public organizations. An additional $2,000 per employee is matched to the Energy Assistance Fund (EAF) during the fall Employee Giving Campaign. Each company match requires a minimum donation of $25.
Volunteer Incentive Grants
Our volunteer incentive grants recognize employees for their commitment to the community, and let the employee choose a favorite charity to receive the funds.
For every 40 hours our employees volunteer, they receive $100 to donate to their favorite nonprofit, up to $600 a year.
Season of Service
From May through September, our employees team up to take part in our annual Season of Service volunteer campaign.
After a day of volunteering with a nonprofit partner, the teams present a $5,000 grant to help the nonprofit continue making good things happen in their community.
