Community outreach and volunteerism

At Kentucky Power, we make it our mission to contribute in a meaningful way to the health and vitality of the 20 eastern Kentucky counties we serve – where we also live and work. We are proud of our communities and are just as proud to be a part of them. That's why giving back and being a good neighbor are core values we hold close to our hearts.

Our company and employees can often be found donating their time, talent and treasure to a variety of causes and missions for the betterment and growth our communities. Through projects big and small, we endeavor to leave a legacy of community support and stewardship.

We are proud to support our community in these ways and many more:

Smoke Detector Installations

Kentucky Power employees partner with the Red Cross and community volunteer fire departments to help provide smoke detectors to those in need.

Read to Me Day

Read to Me Day is an annual event in which our employees volunteer to read to students at schools throughout the company's eastern Kentucky communities. The company began its Read to Me Day program in Kentucky in 2003. Since that first day, Kentucky Power has donated thousands of books to schools and read aloud to thousands of students.

Helping Our Neighbors

When disaster strikes, Kentucky Power employees respond by volunteering their time and talents with community organizations such as Christian Appalachian Project and Housing Development Alliance to help clean up storm damage and repair homes in areas of need.

Power Up the Pantry

Since 2019, Kentucky Power has hosted Power Up the Pantry, a food drive and fundraiser event held across Kentucky Power’s service area. The goal of the event is to help fight hunger by partnering with food banks in eastern Kentucky to support and replenish our local food pantries.

‘Go Pink' in October

During October, our field employees wear pink hard hats to promote breast cancer awareness. We strive to show our support of those affected by the disease and to demonstrate our commitment to community well-being.

Feeding Our Community

We make fighting hunger a priority in our giving and volunteering efforts. From food pantry volunteer work to monetary support for our food banks and local pantries, we’re committed to addressing the issue of hunger by fostering campaigns and partnering with other organizations to combat hunger.

Festival Participation

Kentucky Power employees believe it is important to invest time in our communities. That is why they spend numerous hours volunteering their time and talents to schools, fairs, and festivals.

Line School Program Support

A scholarship for underserved and underrepresented students interested in becoming a line worker is funded through an AEP Foundation grant, at the recommendation of Kentucky Power. This program is an effort to build a more inclusive and dynamic workforce in the electrical industry.

Backpack Programs

Toward the end of summer, Kentucky Power employees volunteer with local backpack programs to help ensure all students go back to school with what they need to start the year off successfully.
