Community

We are citizens of each community we serve and take an active part in its affairs. Like any other citizen, we want our neighbors to think well of us. Besides, it makes good business sense. We prosper only as the community prospers; so we help it thrive in every way we can.

At AEP, we care about the health and safety of our customers, our employees, and the general public. We support philanthropy, diversity, and education. And, we strive to build relationships in all our jurisdictions. Learn more about our efforts.
