Expand for Good
Every day we work to expand access to affordable, lower carbon energy and invest in the communities where we operate. It’s our version of thinking global, acting local.
Staying Connected, Staying Accountable
Across our operations, we help address community needs by investing in local workforce development, minimizing disturbances such as traffic and noise and supporting nonprofits that have positive impacts. At each stage of our operations, we share information openly and seek community feedback to understand and resolve community problems.
Listen to feedback and understand community needs and concerns
Respond to community needs through operational processes and community investment approach
Ongoing engagement, communication, investment and partnership
Ways we engage: In-person community meetings with senior company leaders or regular ‘lunch and learns,’ quarterly newsletters, employee interaction including Owner Relations team engagement and dedicated website pages, online portal and email address
Investing Locally
Our business delivers local economic benefits including:
Jobs: Our career opportunities offer higher-than-average wages.
Royalties: We directly benefit local landowners through mineral leases and royalties.
Taxes: Our tax payments and impact funds support important government services, including schools and infrastructure improvements.
Always Listening
It’s important that our stakeholders can communicate with us. We encourage community members to report operational, safety or community concerns by calling (877) 245-1427.
Our local employees are also available for feedback, and we regularly host in-person community meetings.
It is our goal to make communities stronger and more resilient through our corporate presence. We support this goal by partnering with trusted non-profit organizations and investing in areas of need.
Charitable Giving
Our charitable giving focus areas align with our core values and are streamlined for in-depth giving. We target partnerships in the areas of environment, STEM education and community development.
Partnering with United Way
We host an annual company-wide fundraising campaign to benefit local United Way chapters.
Through employee-driven activities, our corporate campus and field offices raise awareness and collect donations for the organization and its beneficiaries.
Volunteering
We recognize that giving back should be comprehensive.
We encourage community engagement through volunteerism and offer our employees eight hours of company time per year to volunteer at the nonprofit of their choice.
Respect for All
Expand Energy respects the dignity and fundamental rights of all human beings, as reflected in our core values of character and stewardship.
In support of this commitment, we apply our Human Rights Policy consistently across our operations.
