To keep the power reliably flowing, Entergy Texas works year-round to maintain and upgrade its infrastructure to improve service reliability to customers across Southeast Texas. One way the company works to improve reliability is by annually inspecting its utility poles. This year alone, some 62,000 poles will be inspected across Southeast Texas.
Southeast Texas is no stranger to overcoming adversity and supporting our communities. This pandemic has impacted so many, and food banks throughout the country including the Southeast Texas Food Bank in Beaumont are working to meet the historic demand.
In more than 100 years of serving customers, Entergy has faced many challenges together with all our stakeholders. And the company has never wavered in its commitment to do everything they can to support their customers and communities. To support customers through these challenging times, Entergy Texas launched two virtual hubs with information, tools and resources to help customers and small businesses navigate the COVID-19 pandemic.
To help small businesses, Entergy Texas has created a hub of resources to connect owners to information, tools and opportunities that could help during the COVID-19 pandemic.
As Southeast Texas bands together to fight the COVID-19 pandemic, Entergy Texas is committed to supporting our customers and communities during this difficult time through its newly established Southeast Texas Relief Fund. As part of the company’s commitment to supporting Southeast Texas, Entergy Texas, Inc. is donating $300,000 to nine nonprofit groups across 22 counties through Southeast Texas
Entergy Texas employees recently volunteered at the Southeast Texas Food Bank to package food for some of our most vulnerable customers – low-income seniors. Volunteers helped prepare nearly 24,000 pounds of food in a single day for seniors across Southeast Texas. With the holidays just around the corner, volunteers also helped assemble 2,500 bags of holiday trimmings for Thanksgiving.
What was supposed to be a regular meeting about Entergy Texas’ community contributions quickly turned into a surprise of a lifetime for one employee when in walked Missy Herndon, president and CEO of Interfaith of The Woodlands.
