Commitment to Community
Serving the community is about more than just providing electric service. Consolidated Electric has long been committed to making a difference in the community through volunteer efforts, donations, active participation, and involvement in helping make our communities better place to live. We’re a part of the community.

Contributions
Consolidated Electric makes contributions to a wide variety of important community programs and organizations, from national organizations like
United Way and the American Red Cross to the
local youth programs within our schools.

Employee involvement
We’re also very proud of the involvement of our employees in the community. You will find them coaching little league, soccer or T-ball, helping with school programs such as Ohio Reads and Junior Achievement, participating in United Way, Relay for Life, and walk-a-thons to earn funds for worthy causes, and even out helping clean up our roadways through the Adopt-a-Highway program.

Meeting facilities
Consolidated Electric also provides free use of our meeting facilities to local nonprofit organizations. We feel that it’s one way we can support the valuable worthwhile work they do.
