DALLAS, April 29, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stream Energy, one of the largest direct selling companies in the world, announced today that it received two awards from the Philadelphia Business Journal at the 2013 Corporate Philanthropic Summit in Philadelphia.
Stream Energy was recognized as Top In-Kind Donor and Top Philanthropic Donor for the company's efforts to support and promote the work of Utility Emergency Services Fund (UESF), a non-profit which supports low-income families in Philadelphia.
