PPEC giving back to the community

VETERANS DAY DRIVE

Donations from Putnam County, Ohio, all the way to New Haven, Indiana, flooded into our office during the Clothes for Joes Veterans Day Drive on Friday, Nov. 10. Employees collected donations of clothing and hygiene items, filling several SUVs to capacity.

WINTER COAT DRIVE

More than 150 new and gently used coats were donated by members, PPEC employees, and area organizations. Coats were then distributed to needy families and individuals throughout the service territory.

CHRISTMAS GIFTS

Thirty-two shoe boxes were filled by generous employees for Operation Christmas Child, an international program through Samaritan’s Purse that sends Christmas presents to children in need all over the world. Donors fill a box with care and hygiene items, school supplies, water bottles, toys, and other goods for a boy/girl in varying age levels.
