HOUSTON, Aug. 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Direct Energy stands by the residents of Texas during this devastating time. We extend our deepest sympathies to those impacted by Hurricane Harvey, and our gratitude to the emergency response workers from across the U.S. who have come to help.
To support the immediate relief effort across the Greater Houston area and Gulf Coast of Texas, Direct Energy is matching donations up to $25,000 to the American Red Cross, and will continue working with our customers and the community in the months to come.

As Texans, we are here for each other. We believe in building and maintaining strong connections with the people and communities we serve.
