That’s why we offer financial support to nonprofit groups and schools throughout our service territory.

Our corporate giving takes the form of corporate grants, sponsorships and in-kind support, totaling approximately $1 million annually. The money comes from PGE shareholders, not ratepayers.

In addition, PGE employees offer financial support through our annual Employee Giving Campaign and Employee Volunteer Grants program.
