Driven to Make a Difference

Our employees create positive community impact as part of their jobs and by volunteering their time.

Our Culture Thrives on Service

We believe in the power of giving back and have put that belief into action since 1902. We have employees whose full-time responsibility is to engage in the community, listening and working directly with governments, chambers of commerce, businesses and schools to support growth and enact meaningful change. They facilitate conversations to ensure that community leaders are informed about industry issues and programs relevant to their areas.

Also you can always find OG&E employees making a direct impact where they live and work. Each employee can spend two paid days per year volunteering for any eligible programs or organizations.

Standing Together to Support Our Communities
“It’s easy to do if it comes from the heart, and everything I do comes from the heart. That’s why I’ve been able to give back.” - Mark Hamm, Construction Foreman

Community Outreach
We’re lending our expertise to build communities. OG&E works directly with local governments, chambers of commerce and businesses to keep them informed about programs and services that can help them use energy more wisely and improve their business. Because of our reputation for affordable and reliable energy, our commitment to customer service and strong local presence, we are proud that communities consistently continue to select OG&E as their electric utility.
Meals on Wheels
OG&E employees across our service area volunteer weekly for Meals on Wheels in their local community to ensure some of our neighbors receive a hot, fresh meal and enjoy a personal conversation.
