Exelon Employees Show Holiday Spirit by Donating 9,300 Hours to Community Causes in Honor of #GivingTuesday

CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Exelon employees across the country are spending the holiday season
investing their time and money in the communities in which they live,
work and serve. In support of #GivingTuesday, the national day of
giving, approximately 1,400 Exelon volunteers have been participating in
more than 180 service projects between November 1 through December 4 in
regions where company operations are located.

Each year, #GivingTuesday falls on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving to
promote acts of kindness, volunteer work and charitable donations
following the shopping focused “Black Friday” and “Cyber Monday.” Exelon
employees have extended this spirit throughout the holiday season. The
company will also observe #GivingTuesday by matching employees’
charitable donations of $100 or more on that day dollar for dollar, and
contributing an additional donation of $100 to employees’ charities of
choice.

“We’re pleased to join the national #GivingTuesday campaign to promote
the importance of service,” said Chris Crane, president and CEO, Exelon.
“I’m proud that at this time of year, and throughout the year, Exelon
employees are committing their time, energy and expertise to countless
non-profit organizations in communities where we work and live.”

Volunteers for #GivingTuesday service projects include employees from
all of Exelon’s businesses, including Atlantic City Electric in New
Jersey, Delmarva Power and Light, BGE and Constellation in Maryland,
ComEd in northern Illinois, PECO in southeastern Pennsylvania, Pepco in
Washington, D.C., and Exelon Generation and Exelon Business Services
Company in Illinois and across the Mid-Atlantic region. Exelon employees
across these regions also are leading more than 20 food, clothing and
toy drives or similar events to support their communities this holiday
season.

A few of the volunteer activities at Exelon locations around the country
include:

• Serving a Thanksgiving dinner to the homeless with Catholic Charities
  in Washington DC.
