of the Board
Many a Georgia Power Company employe
is a “chairman of the board” in a very real
sense. In churches, schools, civic clubs, gar
den clubs, fraternal orders, you will find
power company men and women heading up
the committees, serving as board chairmen,
and actively working in the ranks.
Our employes take pride in their efforts
to be good citizens. They’re quick to “boost”
the home town, and furthermore they’re
ready to work in order to make it a better
place in which to live. Recall your own experi
ences with Georgia Power people, and you
will realize that they have helped out in
almost every worth-while civic project.
Our employes feel that it is not enough
to provide a community with good electric
service. They try to serve the community
in every other way they can. That is how
our employes wrote, with their accomplish
ments, the company’s slogan, which is printed
below as part of the company’s name.
