the Communities Where We Work
Despite a year of national turmoil and uncertainty,
Constellation Energy and its employees remain constant in their commitment to the
community. Below are some of the ways we responded to those in need in 2001:
- We continued our regional leadership in supporting
the United Ways of Maryland, increasing our donation for the fourth consecutive year with
a combined pledge of almost $2.5 million.
- We again rolled up our sleeves to donate more than
4,000 units of blood, a 46% employee participation rate that is the highest among
private-sector employers in the Maryland region. Its no surprise that for more than
40 years the American Red Cross has relied on our employees for much of our regions
needed blood supply.
- We translated our grief over the September 11th
attacks into support for its heroes. In addition to a corporate donation to United Way of
New York Citys September 11th Fund, employees also gave victims their money, time,
and blood.
- We volunteered hundreds of hours and raised
thousands of dollars to support charities such as Special Olympics and the March of Dimes,
and local initiatives including community shelters and literacy programs.
- We contributed corporately almost $4.7 million to
community-strengthening initiatives that have proven to have a positive impact on
education, economic development, and the environment in the areas where we operate.
