GIVING BACK TO OUR COMMUNITIES
For more than 95 years, Asplundh has been helping communities build and maintain safe and effective power. We started right here in the Philadelphia area and are still headquartered there. We’ve grown to provide the same great service to communities across the country, including Canada, New Zealand, and Australia.
Beyond keeping the lights on
We’re there to keep power lines clear but are often called on to help communities recover from hurricanes, ice storms, and other natural disasters. When a storm or emergency puts the lights out, Asplundh is there to help them get back on quickly and safely. Community and sustainability are not just parts of our business. We live and work in the same communities. Our people are part of and support local schools, churches, hospitals, sports clubs, non-profits, and other institutions in their neighborhoods.
Making a lasting impact
Supporting our neighboring communities is a mission we take to heart. Whether through tree planting campaigns, providing vegetation to local zoos, promoting eco-friendly line-clearance practices, or providing job opportunities in the green industry, our colleagues are dedicated to nurturing, protecting and sustaining the environment for future generations.
A Winning Partnership:
Asplundh Teams Up with the Phillies
We are proud to announce that Asplundh is one of the “Official Community and Sustainability Partners of the Phillies!” We are excited about the potential of this strategic partnership rooted in our mutual values of tradition, teamwork, and a deep commitment to our communities.
For more than 95 years, Asplundh has served the utility industry, helping communities build, recover and thrive in a changing world. We are thrilled to welcome Asplundh, a world leader in our own backyard, to the Phillies family as they join us in several important causes.
We’re very excited to partner with the Phillies and work with the team to strengthen our long-standing ties to the Philadelphia community established over the last 95 years. Sustainability and medical advancement in treating ALS are important initiatives to Asplundh, and we look forward to collaborating with the Phillies and the community to advance these goals.
Making an Impact On and Off the Field
As the team’s Community and Sustainability Partner, we are aiming for a home run on several key initiatives aligned with the Phillies:
Phillies, Fans and Asplundh Rally in Support of MLB’s Lou Gehrig Day. $800,004 Raised for ALS Patient Care and Research to #StrikeOutALS
Thanks to the support of Phillies fans and the generosity of Asplundh and their employees, $800,004 was raised to #StrikeOutALS during the team’s annual ALS Awareness Night at Citizens Bank Park. This amount includes an on-field donation of $365,000 made by the event’s presenting sponsor, Asplundh, in honor of its former Chairman of the Board/CEO Scott Asplundh, who is battling ALS. Monies raised will benefit ALS United Mid-Atlantic and go toward much-needed research, care and services for ALS patients.
The ballpark-wide event, held in conjunction with MLB’s league-wide Lou Gehrig Day, was a continuation of the Phillies’ efforts to make a difference for those battling this fatal disease. The Phillies have helped raise more than $23.8 million for the cause since the club’s relationship began in 1984 with ALS United Mid-Atlantic.
“Our 40-year mission to strike out ALS remains unwavering as we aim to offer hope and help to the courageous individuals affected by this awful disease,” said Phillies Charities, Inc. President John Weber. “Everything we did tonight, and will continue to do, is in hopes of advancing effective treatments and ultimately the cure for ALS. Thank you to Asplundh, and to all who joined us, to aid ALS United Mid-Atlantic in their efforts.”
HOME RUN FOR TREES 2025 SPONSORSHIP: Turning Phillies Home Runs into Greener Communities
Asplundh has once again teamed up with the Phillies and the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society (PHS) for the Home Runs for Trees program. For each home run hit by a Phillies player, a tree is planted in the Greater Philadelphia area by PHS. Through this partnership, we’ve helped plant more than 400 trees across Greater Philadelphia and raised over $1.5 million for ALS research. A special thanks to Philabundance and the volunteers who are helping to make this happen. We’re proud to be making a difference for people and the planet—one home run at a time.
We’re very excited to partner with the Phillies and work with the team to strengthen our long-standing ties to the Philadelphia community established over the last 95 years. Sustainability and medical advancement in treating ALS are important initiatives to Asplundh, and we look forward to collaborating with the Phillies and the community to advance these goals.
Restoring a field of dreams
In the 1930s and ’40s, the Philadelphia Stars lit up Negro Leagues baseball with their talent and enduring spirit. Today, their memorial park stands as a tribute to that proud history and a place where the community can reflect and remember.
But like the special memories it holds, the time-weathered park deserved care and attention. So together as one, the Phillies, Asplundh and Independence Property Services teamed up for a clean-up mission. Together, we rolled up our sleeves to bring refreshed energy to the space where the Stars’ legacy is honored and the community can enjoy for generations to come. Watch the video.

COMMUNITY GIVING: ASPLUNDH IN ACTION
AES/AET employees pitch in for Habitat for Humanity
Asplundh Engineering Services (AES) and Asplundh Electrical Testing (AET) employees in Boonton, New Jersey, teamed up in 2025 for a Habitat for Humanity home building project. Habitat for Humanity, founded in 1976, estimates it has built and improved homes for more than 62 million people around the world. The Asplundh team arrived at the job site and were promptly assigned a variety of tasks, from unloading and organizing materials to building out what would become the second floor of Habitat home. It was a great day of team building for the group, one with the added benefit of giving back to their community.
Funding the Arts
The Fund for the Arts, a non-profit arts foundation based in Louisville, Kentucky, hosted its 2nd annual Celebration of the Arts festival in the city’s Paristown neighborhood in April. Asplundh has been a proud supporter of the organization for more than 10 years. Manager Brett Blanchard and his wife Kirstan (second and third from right), are seen here with Fund for the Arts Staff at the event.
Touch-a-Truck
Every year, Asplundh crews participate in dozens of Touch-a-Truck events around the county. Touch-a-Truck events are a great opportunity to connect with children and their parents in local communities to let them know the many ways we help ensure safe delivery of electric power to their homes. In this photo, Planner Tyler Malaguti and General Foreperson Derek Davis, who work in Justin Gallagher’s Region in Florida, hosted a Touch-a-Truck event for children in Keystone Heights on Clay Electric Property.
Partnering with Local Suppliers
Last year, OWL Subsid Inc., a locally owned and operated utility vegetation management company in Chicago, marked its 10th anniversary. Asplundh has acted as a mentor for the local vegetation management, offering it operations and safety training advice as well as business and accounting guidance. It’s a model for the company’s strategic procurement program to invest time and resources into diverse suppliers across the country. In the photo are (from left): Asplundh Manager Bobby Winton, Asplundh Regional Safety Superintendent Chris McLaughlin, Asplundh Director of Supplier Engagement Keli Hearon and OWL General Foreperson RaKina Payne.
Supporting Students with Work Study Opportunities
Asplundh completed its 3rd year of providing work-study positions for students of Cristo Rey, a private college preparatory high school in Philadelphia. The company hosted four students who spent time working with the HR, Fleet and IT departments. Asplundh has not only provided work placement slots to Cristo Rey students but has committed to supporting the school financially. It’s an important program that gives invaluable experience to high school students that prepares them for both college and career.
