Ameren Illinois Employees volunteer at Dream Center Peoria
PEORIA, Ill. (WMBD) — Ameren Illinois employees are rolling up their sleeves to give back to local organizations during National Volunteer Month.
Ameren employees volunteered at Dream Center Peoria for three hours. They cleaned windows and painted the community room at the shelter.
Ruthie Bertram with Ameren Illinois said it feels good to pour into an organization that does so much for people in need.
'We're more than happy to do it. It shows that we care about the places that we live in, and we want to help make our community stronger and thrive. And the dream center does so much, I mean, if we're in here, just painting, it's the least we can do, right? And we're happy to do it, and Ameren is happy to do it to help them,' said Bertram.
Ameren is focusing on giving back to non-profits that focus on food insecurity. April is National Volunteer Month.
