At Gexa Energy, the commitment to powering strong communities shines through in everything we do. Our latest initiative, the "iPledge, My Choice" employee giving campaign, underscores this commitment by enabling each employee to make a tangible difference in their communities. This campaign, aptly named "Hats Off toHelping," ran from November 11 to November 22, 2024, and exemplified the diverse roles everyone plays in their daily lives—whether as community leaders, supportive colleagues, or devoted family members and friends.
