Idaho Philanthropy Day is celebrated statewide to recognize the amazing philanthropic work of nonprofit organizations, foundations, businesses, and individuals nominated by their peers. The Idaho Philanthropy Day awards encompass the spirit of philanthropy including, time, talent, treasure, and involvement in the community.

ESI is honored to receive the Outstanding Philanthropic Company/Foundation award this year.  The ESI CARES nonprofit foundation was established in 2018 and is dedicated to making an enduring impact on the community through education, recycling, and partnership. In April 2019, ESI CARES Month was born.  For 30 days, ESI’s staff and trade partners focused on various recycling efforts such as collecting bottles and cans in the offices and scrap metal on the job sites.  To date, ESI has collected over 631,500 pounds of metal that can be used for recycling, and in turn, give back to the community through donations.
