Scholarships

Students of NRG employees from across the country are eligible annually for scholarships (up to $60,000 each), the recipients of which are selected by an independent committee. The committee includes teachers, educators, and other academic professionals.

Young Audiences

NRG has partnered with Young Audiences New Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania to sponsor NRG Creatively Green festivals in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and now nationally to encourage schools to promote sustainability.

DonorsChoose

Our company's partnership with DonorsChoose enables NRG employees to give to specific projects such as books, laptops, or any project that sparked their interest in their local communities. Employees could also contribute to the Keep Kids Learning program, which helps teachers in low-income communities send key resources to students impacted by coronavirus-related school closures.

NonProfitConnect

NonProfitConnect offered by NRG is a comprehensive training program for participants interested in joining a nonprofit board or who are already serving on a board and want to sharpen their skills.
