Strengthening Communities with the Same Discipline We Bring to Power Generation
SG Energy Solutions was built on the belief that business success and community responsibility go hand in hand. The same discipline, accountability, and long-term thinking that define our work in the field also shape how we invest in the communities where we live and operate.
SG Cares is our commitment to building opportunity beyond infrastructure. It reflects our belief that reliable systems matter, whether they power cities or empower people.
Leadership That Extends Beyond Business
At SG Energy Solutions, leadership means action. Our founder and CEO, Derron Sanders, is deeply engaged in initiatives that expand economic opportunity and strengthen financial access in underserved communities.
Through board service with First Independence Bank, one of the nation’s leading Black-owned financial institutions, and leadership involvement with Grow Michigan, he supports initiatives that provide growth capital, strategic resources, and long-term stability for small and mid-sized businesses.
That commitment reflects our broader belief that strong communities are built through access, opportunity, and responsible stewardship.
Investing in Education & Opportunity
Education creates access. It builds confidence. It changes trajectories. SG Cares supports institutions and programs that expand opportunities for young people facing economic barriers. Our company sponsors Loyola High School and partners with organizations serving inner-city youth to ensure financial circumstances do not limit potential. Our support includes:
We believe education is one of the most powerful long-term investments a company can make.
A Culture of Giving Back
SG Cares is not limited to leadership initiatives. It lives throughout our organization.
Our team actively supports Beyond Basics, a Detroit-based literacy organization focused on transforming lives through reading and writing proficiency. Literacy creates confidence, opportunity, and mobility; values that align with how we approach both our work and our community involvement.
Giving back is not a campaign. It is part of our culture.
Building More Than Infrastructure
We measure success in projects completed, outages shortened, and systems stabilized. But we also measure it in opportunities expanded, students supported, and communities strengthened.
SG Cares reflects who we are at our core—a company committed to meaningful work, integrity, and a positive impact wherever we serve.
We believe education is one of the most powerful long-term investments a company can make.
