As December draws to a close, the holiday spirit inspires warmth, joy, and a sense of community. At UPA, we reflect on the fundamental values that drive us, particularly the importance of generosity and giving back.
The Heart of Generosity
Generosity is a core value at UPA, extending beyond our utility construction projects. We aim to create connections and foster a sense of community. This month, we emphasize the importance of giving back to others and supporting those in need. We encourage our employees, partners, and clients to embrace the holiday spirit by donating food to local shelters, volunteering, or supporting local organizations. Every act of kindness matters.
How You Can Give This Year
- Holiday Food Drive: Partner with local food banks to collect non-perishable items, ensuring families enjoy warm meals this season.
- Volunteer Days: Dedicate time to local shelters, food banks, or soup kitchens. Many organizations host holiday events where volunteers can assist with meal preparation, toy distribution, or holiday parties for those in need.
- Create Care Packages: Assemble care packages filled with essential items and holiday cheer.
- Sponsor a Family: Participate in a holiday sponsorship program where you can provide gifts, food, and necessities to a family facing challenges this season. Your support can make a significant difference in their holiday experience.

A Commitment Beyond the Holidays
Our dedication to generosity and community extends beyond December. As we upgrade our nation’s utility infrastructure, we strive to create safe environments for families to thrive. From all of us at UPA, we wish you a joyful holiday season filled with the spirit of giving.
Happy Holidays from UPA!
