Lillian Davenport is the epitome of selflessness.
Being a foster mother to 30 children while raising six of her own is no task for the faint of heart.
Last week, SC Electric & Gas employee volunteers celebrated Davenport’s giving spirit by weatherizing and beautifying her Bates-burg home.
“Serving the community is ingrained in all of us as SCE&G employees,” said Sam Dozier, SCE&G vice president of customer service.
“We participate in multiple weatherization projects every year. It’s always gratifying.
“Our employees appreciated the opportunity to help Ms. Davenport.
“She has single-handedly made a positive impact on the lives of so many. It’s our honor to assist her in this way.”
Employees worked alongside volunteers from the Aiken/Barnwell Counties Community Action Agency, Inc. and the South Carolina Department of Administration’s Office of Economic Opportunity to complete repairs and improvements.
SCE&G volunteers completed several tasks to make Davenport’s home safer and more energy efficient, including replacing windows, a laundry room door and panel and the attic hatch; installing new low-flow shower heads, a crawlspace door, smoke alarms and a carbon monoxide monitor; and sealing air and duct leaks.
