Cleco’s new online charitable giving platform

PINEVILLE, La. – On Jan. 1, Cleco launched a new online charitable giving platform to continue giving to and supporting communities across Louisiana.

The new platform is accessible at https://www.cleco.com/community/corporate-giving. All requests for donations, sponsorships, volunteers, employee giving and matching must be made online.
