Capstone Employees Pledge to Improve the Community and the World Through Volunteerism
30 August 2018 - 10:30PM
Capstone Turbine Corporation (www.capstoneturbine.com) (Nasdaq:
CPST), the world’s leading clean technology manufacturer of
microturbine energy systems, announced today its continued
commitment to improve the local community and the world through
volunteerism in an effort to build a greener future through
interactive programs and activities.
Capstone as a company believes that it has a social
responsibility to all of its stakeholders, including the community
around it and its employees. Specifically, the company developed
the Capstone Cares program as an important initiative
which Capstone employees work collaboratively to have a positive
impact on our local community. The company, through its Capstone
Cares program, rolled up their collective sleeves last week for a
volunteer clean-up event in the neighboring community.
In partnership with Los Angeles City Councilwoman, Nury
Martinez’ office and in collaboration with the Office of Community
Beautification, Los Angeles Conservation Corps, Bureau of
Sanitation and community neighbors, Capstone employees participated
in a volunteer clean-up event on Friday, August 24, 2018, to
beautify the surrounding community.
“We recognize how each of us gives back may be different, but
our objective is the same — to bring out the good,” said Darren
Jamison, President and Chief Executive Officer of Capstone.
“Without community service, we would not have a strong quality of
life. It’s important to the person who serves as well as the
recipient. Residents in the community recognized our clean-up
efforts with car horns, friendly waves, while others took the time
to walk up and personally thank us,” added Jamison.
Capstone Cares leadership team members and employees logged in
excess of 80 volunteer hours to support the clean-up effort that
consisted of litter removal, weed abatement and street sweeping
from a key stretch of public property in the Los Angeles area.
“Thank you to Capstone for giving back to our community and
working with my office in making it a cleaner place for families to
enjoy,” said Los Angeles City Councilwoman Nury Martinez, District
6.
Capstone is committed to promoting clean and green initiatives
in our community in support of a cleaner America. Capstone Cares is
scheduled to participate in the National Kidney Foundation’s Los
Angeles Kidney Walk on Sunday, October 14, 2018, and has partnered
with community groups to collaborate on blood drives, food drives,
and toy drives programs during the remainder of the calendar year
2018.
“We want to ensure that we not only achieve our financial goals
but also continue to focus on our responsibility as a corporate
citizen and maintain strong values that include the primary
framework of ESG principals and standards. We manufacture clean and
green products, but as a company, we want to do our part to limit
our environmental risks, energy consumption, waste disposal and
carbon footprint,” added Mr. Jamison.
