Community Support Program

ENWIN and its employees recognize that making a contribution to the community is an integral part of our corporate social responsibility. Subject to budgetary considerations and our community support policy, we assist organizations within our service territory that contribute to a better quality of life for our community. 

Our Community Support Program focuses on building relationships aligned with our strategic business plans and core values and principles. We build relationships that will provide lasting impact for our company, our customers and our community. 

Our Community Support partners demonstrate a significant and unique contribution to our community. 

Applications for the 2024 Community Support Program are now closed. 

The Community Support Program is currently undergoing a comprehensive review and transformation. Stay tuned to our website and social media channels for more information, which is expected to be released in the fall of 2024.

For any questions, please contact  communitysupport@enwin.com with Community Support in the subject line.
