Schneider Electric donates $25,000 to Electrical Safety Foundation International

Company fulfills its five-year, $500,000 contribution pledge to the organization

Schneider Electric’s North American Operating Division recently donated $25,000 for the Electrical Safety Foundation International (ESFI). The company is ESFI’s only Platinum Beacon sponsor, which means it fulfilled a five-year, $500,000 contribution pledged in 1999 to the ESFI endowment campaign.

Based in Arlington, Va., ESFI’s goal is to reduce electrical-related deaths and injuries through public education. The donation will allow the foundation to sponsor National Electrical Safety Month each May and to produce resources and outreach programs designed to raise public awareness of electrical hazards and safety tips.
