Principle Energy believes in giving back to a variety of causes and in a number of ways whether that be our time, money or resources. We proudly make contributions and provide assistance to the following charities:
4-H: America’s largest youth development organization—empowering nearly six million young people across the U.S. with the skills to lead for a lifetime.
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital: Leading the way in defeating childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
Seeds of Hope: A nonprofit organization dedicated to preventing human trafficking, drug addiction, alcoholism and violence, and whose mission it is to empower and educate students in high-risk communities with life skills needed to break the cycle/silence.
Silver Gloves Boxing Tournament: Principle Energy is the sole sponsor of this annual tournament. Ragin Cajun Boxing Club provides at-risk youth an alternative pathway and is where our President and CEO Richard Hamilton learned to box. In 2005, Richard was inducted into Ragin Cajun’s Boxing Hall Of Fame for his accomplishments in amateur boxing.
Hurricane Harvey Recovery: We are extremely proud of our entire team for their selfless efforts in the days following Hurricane Harvey. At a time when the entire city of Houston was tested, our team put forth countless hours rescuing people from flooded homes and bringing them to safety. We are proud to work with such dedicated and compassionate people. In this video, our President and CEO Richard Hamilton (first one down the stairs, with a blue American flag shirt), can be seen rescuing an elderly man and his family from their flooded home.
