Empowering our communities
We live here. We work here. What matters to the communities we serve and to our customers, matters to us. In 2023, we expanded our ongoing efforts to enhance lives, foster economic growth and promote prosperity throughout our service areas through various customer and community programs.
赋予我们的社区权力
我们住在这里。我们在这里工作。对我们服务的社区和客户而言，重要的是什么，对我们很重要。2023 年，我们扩大了持续努力，通过各种客户和社区计划改善生活、促进经济增长和促进整个服务领域的繁荣。
Customer bill assistance
Last summer, record-breaking heat led to a surge in energy consumption and resulted in increased electricity bills. To alleviate this financial strain on our customers, we collaborated closely with our regulators and community partners to implement a series of initiatives to help customers beat the summer heat.
客户账单援助
去年夏天，破纪录的高温导致能源消耗激增，并导致电费增加。为了缓解客户的这种财务压力，我们与监管机构和社区合作伙伴密切合作，实施了一系列举措，帮助客户度过夏日的炎热。
In total, we provided more than $5.6 million to help our customers in need. Shareholder donations were applied to bill payment assistance programs across all our operating companies, including The Power to Care program that provides emergency bill payment assistance to older adults and customers with disabilities in their time of need. Additionally, our dedicated employees volunteered their time to conduct energy efficiency fairs in underserved communities and worked with community partners to provide energy efficiency home makeovers for our vulnerable customers.
我们总共提供了超过560万美元来帮助有需要的客户。股东捐款适用于我们所有运营公司的账单支付援助计划，包括Power to Care计划，该计划在老年人和残障客户需要时为他们提供紧急账单支付援助。此外，我们敬业的员工自愿抽出时间在服务不足的社区举办能效博览会，并与社区合作伙伴合作，为我们的弱势客户提供节能家居改造。
Closing the racial wealth gap
As part of our commitment to eradicating poverty and creating opportunities for the communities we serve, Entergy launched a new partnership last fall with the non-profit Single Stop and Stackwell Capital. The partnership supports students of Historically Black Colleges and Universities to ensure their success and position them to build generational wealth, a foundation for economic stability.
缩小种族贫富差距
作为我们消除贫困和为我们所服务的社区创造机会的承诺的一部分，Entergy去年秋天与非营利组织Single Stop和Stackwell Capital建立了新的合作伙伴关系。该合作伙伴关系支持历史悠久的黑人学院和大学的学生，确保他们取得成功，使他们能够积累代际财富，这是经济稳定的基础。
The Power of Prosperity initiative will be offered free of charge to 1,500 first-year students at Dillard University, Southern University at New Orleans and Xavier University of Louisiana through a $700,000 donation from our owners. HBCUs play a vital role in shaping the lives of their students and communities.
通过我们的所有者70万美元的捐款，将向迪拉德大学、新奥尔良南方大学和路易斯安那泽维尔大学的1,500名一年级学生免费提供繁荣的力量计划。HBCU在塑造学生和社区的生活方面起着至关重要的作用。
Our partnership with these HBCUs will help remove barriers to student success, equip them with tools and knowledge and help them build a path to multigenerational wealth. The program is being launched as a one-year pilot for HBCUs in Orleans Parish, with plans to expand to other HBCUs in our service area in the future.
我们与这些HBCU的合作将有助于消除学生成功的障碍，为他们提供工具和知识，并帮助他们开辟通往多代财富的道路。该计划是奥尔良教区HBCU的为期一年的试点项目，并计划将来扩展到我们服务区域的其他HBCU。
