THE WOODLANDS, Texas – More than just another day on the course, The Power to Care Golf Charity Classic turned friendly competition into meaningful support for vulnerable Southeast Texas residents. Employees, community partners and sponsors came together at The Woodlands Country Club Palmer Course to raise more than $362,000 for The Power to Care. With dollar-for-dollar matching contributions from corporate shareholders, $725,000 will provide critical assistance to seniors, individuals with disabilities and other vulnerable neighbors facing financial hardships.
“Each year, this event showcases what’s possible when our employees and partners come together with a shared purpose,” said Ryan Magee, Entergy Texas’ Director of Public Affairs. “Every dollar raised helps our neighbors stay safe and comfortable in their homes, and it’s our mission to continue supporting our customers who need a helping hand.”
This year’s tournament, sponsored by Mitsubishi Power, brought together more than 200 participants in the spirit of giving. Since its inception in 1983, the Power to Care program has provided more than $11.3 million in assistance, helping customers pay over 95,000 utility bills. Year after year, the program proves that even small contributions can make a big difference, offering financial relief and peace of mind to those in need.
“We love being here to support The Power to Care,” said Brittany Benson, LTSA Regional Director, Mitsubishi Power. “People is at the core of what power generation is all about for both Mitsubishi Power and Entergy. It’s been a beautiful partnership, and we’re happy to continue supporting this initiative.”
For customers seeking help with their bills, Entergy offers a range of resources through its Bill Toolkit. The toolkit provides an overview of payment options—such as Level Billing and Pick-A-Date—along with information on customer assistance programs and ways to manage energy usage.
