Serving Our Kids is proud to partner with NV Energy Foundation for a marathon
meal-bagging event to kick-off the 2024/2025 school year.
“This event will provide 10,000 meal bags for food-insecure children throughout Southern Nevada,” said Laurie Tanakaya, CEO of Serving Our Kids. “We are so grateful for this amazing opportunity to partner with NV Energy Foundation to serve and support our community.”
The NV Energy Foundation is committed to connecting with the community through civic leadership, financial contributions and volunteerism. Its mission is to make every community a better place to live, work and do business.
“Volunteerism is at the heart of what we do,” said Angel Williams, Director of Community Relations at NV Energy. “This year, we set a goal to engage more of our employees and business units in team building volunteer projects.
“When we engage in team building volunteerism, we deepen our community connection and strengthen the sense of community within our team.” Angel added. “It’s a key part of our culture of continuous improvement.”
“Serving Our Kids helps ensure that kids throughout Southern Nevada have access to free and healthy food,” said Shannon Gregory, NV Energy’s Director of Electric Delivery in Southern Nevada. “The NV Energy Foundation has supported their program with a $50,000 donation.
“We worked hard to make sure as many of our field employees, who normally don’t have the opportunity to volunteer during the work day, could participate in this important event without affecting service to our customers.”
