A group of dedicated FirstEnergy employees took part in an effort in Summit County, Ohio, volunteering their time and skills to the Silver Maple Ridge project, a significant initiative aimed at constructing 16 Habitat for Humanity homes in the area.

Eren Demiray, Meter to Market Project Manager, organized the opportunity for employees to meet and connect with other people they might not otherwise have had the chance to meet.

This collaborative endeavor involves a partnership with the city that generously donated the land for the project. As a part of this development, Akron will see the construction of its first new park in over 40 years, marking a significant milestone for the community.

The initiative not only contributed to the development of much-needed housing but also fostered community connection and volunteerism among FirstEnergy staff.
