ETSA Utilities employees are very committed to working in and for the community, working countless hours behind the scenes, directly making or raising donations for charity and volunteering with community organisations.
The ETSA Utilities Employee Foundation is a charitable trust established in September 2006 to formalise and coordinate the significant contribution of ETSA Utilities employees to the South Australian community.
The Foundation's main aim is to increase both corporate and individual involvement in the community, and to act as the central point through which employee fundraising and volunteering initiatives are coordinated and managed.
The Foundation also facilitates the collection and distribution of donations received from employees - matched dollar-for-dollar by ETSA Utilities up to a value of $50,000.
'Employees coming together to make a difference to the quality of life in our community through volunteering and giving.'
The Foundation is a separate corporation to ETSA Utilities and is managed on a day-to-day basis by a Management Committee, comprising eight employee-elected representatives and three Trustee nominated representatives.
The Management Committee acts as the interface between the Foundation, employees and charities and is responsible for aligning the Foundation’s activities with the vision; coordinating workplace giving; fundraising and volunteering and selecting charities to benefit from the funds donated and the volunteering hours.
The Foundation's Management Committee has identified key causes to support. Find out more about who we support.
Through the efforts of our volunteers and donors, the Foundation has consistently grown over the past three years. See our 2009 annual report for more information.
