Dear Molly:

On behalf of the Community Foundation of Monroe County, I would like to express my support for the Fermi 2 License Extension Renewal effort.In my capacity as the Executive Director of the Community Foundation of Monroe County, working with non-profits in Monroe County and the region, I have seen what a tremendous partner DTE Energy and the Fermi 2 Power Plant have been to the overall philanthropic community.

DTE Energy and its Foundation have supported tens of millions to charities in southeast Michigan that help our communities thrive.DTE Energy has been a significant partner in many local initiatives to name a few .... the River Raisin Jazz Festival, the Monroe County United Way, the River Raisin Battlefield Foundation and the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge. Many of their employees serve on charitable boards across Monroe County non-profits.

Their employees last year volunteered for 96 projects from serving Thanksgiving Dinner to seniors to raising funds in walk-a-thons to helping with environmental stewardship efforts like planting trees.DTE Energy made one of its largest philanthropic gifts to the Monroe County Community College that helped the capital campaign for the Career Technology Center. But they went above and beyond, their employees volunteer, offer training, serve as adjuncts, provide internships and are active partners in helping create a workforce ready for high technology employment.

The Fermi 2 Power Plant has been one of the largest employers in the Community and taxpayer as well.Their contributions have helped our schools, governments and infrastructure and overall quality of life.This is why I lend my support. Renewing the Fermi 2 license is a cost-effective way to ensure DTE can continue to provide clean, base-load energy and continue its history of philanthropy in the greater Monroe Community.
