Our Community
Our mission to provide clean, safe, reliable and affordable energy is about more than our bottom line. We’re committed to supporting and improving our communities and environment at the local level and beyond, while conducting business with honesty, integrity and fairness.
Outreach and Engagement
Southern Company system employees are inextricably woven into the communities we are privileged to serve. Our employees can be seen quickly restoring power in neighborhoods hit by storms, at community events and our supporting local charities. Teaching kids about energy and responsible use of resources is part of Southern Company's commitment to support education.

Driving Good Energy Through Golf
Golf is a game that mirrors the values we hold dear at Southern Company. That’s why we’re proud to partner with organizations that are making the sport more accessible for everyone. Through our PGA TOUR partnership, we've helped generate over $63 million for community charities since 1998, ensuring that our efforts create lasting positive impacts. Together, we’re driving change and providing opportunity both on and off the course.
