Exelon Employees Volunteer 14,000 Hours for 375 Community Organizations in Support of #GivingTuesday

Company to match employee donations on #GivingTuesday; More than $8.2
million donated to nonprofits by employees year-to-date

CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Employee volunteers from Exelon kicked off the holiday season by
contributing 14,000 volunteer hours and participating in more than 150
service projects in support of #GivingTuesday, the national day of
giving. More than 1,500 Exelon volunteers in 39 cities are participating
and have expanded their efforts this year by taking part in charitable
activities throughout the month of November.

#GivingTuesday, which falls on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving,
encourages acts of kindness and generosity from individuals, civic
organizations and businesses to help foster lasting change in
communities. Throughout the year, Exelon matches employee charitable
donations of $25 or more dollar-for-dollar. On #GivingTuesday, Exelon
will not only match employee contributions dollar-for-dollar, but will
also contribute an additional $100 on employee donations of $100 or more
to their charity of choice.

So far in 2017, employees have pledged more than $8.2 million through
Exelon’s Employee Giving Campaign, exceeding the company’s goal and
breaking previous records.

“We are proud to be part of the #GivingTuesday campaign and support its
mission to bring people together through community service,” said Maggie
FitzPatrick, senior vice president of Corporate Affairs, Philanthropy
and Customer Engagement at Exelon. “Exelon employees across the country
are passionate about giving back to the communities where we live and
work – dedicating more than 176,000 hours to community service so far
this year. It’s one of the many ways we are living our values during the
holidays and throughout the year.”

Exelon’s community programs engage employees in volunteer and charitable
giving opportunities that enrich them personally and professionally,
while positively impacting the community year-round. In the month of
November alone, Exelon volunteer activities included:

• Tutoring low-income children to improve their reading comprehension
  skills through the Working in the Schools Initiative (WITS) in Chicago
  and Philadelphia READS
