“The best part about coaching little league is working with the kids and seeing their skills grow,” said Senior Forecast Analyst, Tim Kirchman. “By the end of the season you see a group of kids come together as a team and cheer for each other. That’s very enjoyable and gratifying.” Tim has been volunteering with Parkway Little League West Roxbury/Roslindale for the past two years. His 11-year-old son William also plays in the league. In honor of National Volunteer Week, we’re proud to recognize employees like Tim who empower their communities by going above and beyond

During #NationalVolunteerWeek, we’re proud to recognize all our employees, like Brian, who are working for a better tomorrow.
Today is National Lineworker Appreciation Day As part of National Lineworker Appreciation Day, Eversource proudly salutes the men and women of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) and Utility Workers Union of America (UWUA), who keep the power flowing to our customers every day. Our skilled and experienced lineworkers maintain our distribution and transmission networks, work day and night in all types of conditions, and serve the neighborhoods where we work and live—providing reliable and safe access to the energy our customers need. In 2013, the U.S. Senate passed a resolution designating April 18 as National Lineworker Appreciation Day to honor the brave men and women who protect public safety by keeping the power flowing. Edison Electric Institute (EEI) honors line workers with their own National Lineworker Appreciation Day on July 10. Here’s a brief video thanking our lineworkers http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vQfF6
