GIVING BACK
NextEra Energy Resources supports dozens of organizations and events across the country, including sponsorships of festivals, rodeos, family and sporting events, and community clubs.
Giving Back to the Community
Shortly after moving to Kasson, Minnesota, NextEra Energy Resources learned we could meet a need at Fairview Care Center. Holly Beaver, head of Fairview’s therapy department said, “I felt like I won the lottery. We’re so excited and happy that we can use it to help other people.”
Partnering with Habitat for Humanity
Our employees are involved in activities our local communities. For example, our Point Beach Nuclear Plant in Wisconsin partnered with Manitowoc Habitat for Humanity on home projects as well as contributing to Big Brothers, Big Sisters.
Our employees also support their local United Way organizations in many states. For example, Seabrook Station in New Hampshire raised $31,000 for the United Way of the Greater Seacoast through its annual golf tournament.
Sponsoring local events
We help communities by sponsoring local events. For example, NextEra Energy Resources was the title sponsor of the Rush Springs Watermelon Festival in Oklahoma.
