Community & Economic Impact

See how our community investments and supplier diversity initiatives are making a difference for the people and places we serve.

Powered by Partnerships

Since 1886, Edison International has supported the communities in which many of us live and work.

Our volunteering, customer assistance programs and partnerships with local nonprofits help address key needs across SCE’s diverse service area. Today, Edison International is also one of the largest corporate charitable contributors in Southern California.

Through partnering with small and diverse businesses to fulfill SCE’s procurement needs, we further contribute to a healthier economy, healthier people and healthier environment — which we see as all interconnected.
