As a
regional energy company whose principal operating subsidiaries, Detroit Edison
and MichCon, supply electricity and gas to more than 5 million people, DTE
Energy specializes in "energizing the progress of society." DTE Energy
improves the quality of life in our communities by contributing to the economic
well-being of society, by fueling technological progress, and by providing the
energy that is essential to the health and well-being of others. The mission of
the DTE Energy Foundation, the charitable arm of DTE Energy, is much the
same.
Detroit Edison and MichCon are in a special business in that people rely on us to "be here" for them 24-hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days of the year. In a sense, we're a company that never sleeps and our corporate contributions and DTE Energy Foundation are a part of those efforts to continue to make dreams real.
But when all is said and done, it's our people who make dreams real. DTE Energy has a long tradition of generously matching employee gifts to worthwhile institutions and providing grants in honor of major employee volunteer actions. The company's employees spend thousands of hours each year making a difference in the lives of others.
If you have any questions regarding the DTE Energy Foundation, please contact us. Thank you again for your interest in our efforts to improve the quality of life in our communities.
Frederick E. Shell
President and Director
The DTE Energy Foundation
