Entergy team members take pride in the work we do to power the lives of our customers, employees, communities and owners. For more than a century, we have provided safe, affordable and reliable energy that has helped millions live, learn and grow.

Volunteering and giving are at the heart of our mission to power life, and our employees embody this commitment every day. In honor of National Volunteer Month – a monthlong celebration recognizing volunteers and encouraging continued volunteerism in April – we are shining a light on the selfless spirit of six employees who dedicate their time to give back in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Orleans and Texas.

Entergy's ongoing support of the Earned Income Tax Credit and Volunteer Income Tax Assistance sites demonstrates the company's commitment to empowering families and growing our communities. Since 2009, our support of VITA sites has helped return $298 million to more than 164,000 residents throughout our service area. 

Entergy employees and community members came together on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day to answer King’s question, "what are you doing for others?" Rather than taking advantage of a long weekend to stay at home and relax, many Entergy employees commemorated MLK Day by joining local organizations and nonprofits for a weekend of community-building and giving across the New Orleans Metro Area.

As the year draws to a close, our thoughts turn to all things merry and bright as we remember the past and look forward to a new year filled with hope and promise. It was a busy 2021 at Entergy Mississippi, one filled with silver linings and good news. News about growth and economic development in our communities. About building the utility of the future. And about our employees giving back to the communities in which they live and work.
