Western Lighting and Energy Controls Commits to Giving Back This Holiday Season

San Diego, CA (December 3rd, 2019) – Western Lighting and Energy Controls (WLEC) is at the forefront of a charitable initiative this holiday season in a company-wide effort to give back to the local and regional community. While the holidays are a time of indulgence for many, it’s also a critical season for charities serving those less fortunate.

Matt Sedlock, a Western company Principal sums up the heart of this decision— “Western is excited to join the scores of other businesses and individuals embarking on charitable contributions this year. We feel a collective responsibility within our team culture to give back to our community, and this is an obvious and meaningful way to do so.”

They invite the community to join them in this charitable giving, kicking off with #GivingTuesday, on December 3rd.

Western’s decision to give back is in line with this company’s overarching commitment to social responsibility and community involvement,” says company Principal Jimm Reifsnyder. “We’ve all experienced so many blessings over the course of the year and hope to have a far-reaching impact with this initiative.”

Examples of this commitment are evident in the company’s dedication to hiring veterans from the community, as well as their recent announcement of becoming an employee-owned business. Now, to mark the holiday season and end of the year, Western also invites their customers and the community at large to join them in supporting the following charities. 

The American Cancer Society is a well-established leader in the fight against cancer, funding critical research and patient support and providing free rides and accommodation for cancer patients and their families, among other efforts. They are the only organization fighting the fight against cancer on every level of treatment and support, and an obvious choice of a charity to give back to this season. You can help support the fight against cancer by clicking here.

The second charity Western is inviting the community to help them in supporting is the California Community Foundation, a philanthropic organization supporting initiatives in the Los Angeles county community – which strikes close to home for the San Diego-based company. The CCF works to promote widespread systemic change in the Los Angeles community, providing grants to address the most pressing issues regarding health, sustainability, education, immigration, and housing. Most recently, they’re working tirelessly now to aid victims of the devasting California wildfires.

As this holiday season kicks off, Western looks forward to the difference they can make collectively, along with the community’s support, to give back to causes that matter the most.
