Georgia Power employees continue to support their local communities during the COVID-19 pandemic while completing outdoor volunteer projects, practicing social distancing and wear proper PPE. 

This weekend, a group of volunteers from the Citizens of Georgia Power – Metro West chapter helped plant trees, lay mulch and complete other landscaping projects at the new playground space at “The Children’s Haven” in Canton. The trees were purchased through a grant from the Georgia Power Foundation.

The Children’s Haven is a non-profit that promotes health and happiness to foster children impacted by abuse and neglect. The organization recently built a playground specifically to help integrate children back with their guardians during visitations.

Citizens of Georgia Power is the employee volunteer arm of Georgia Power Company. With 42 chapters statewide and more than 3,400 members, consisting of employees and their spouses, volunteers contributed more than 125,000 hours equal to $3.1 million last year.
