Starve Poverty is a wonderful organization that is doing wonderful things. Since getting involved, we have continued to donate our time every year because we love it so much. We’ve developed great relationships with the Bahamian people as well, and the trips are making us appreciate everything we are doing so much more. The fact that PSEG’s new Power of One campaign is spotlighting what the volunteers in our organization are doing on their own time to help others makes us both proud. PSEG is committed to strengthening communities and supporting employee volunteerism, and we are honored to be a part of such a great company.
