As presenting partner of the JDRF Tee Up for Diabetes Golf Tournament, Georgia Natural Gas is proud to do its part in finding a cure for type 1 diabetes.

The company has a strong belief in giving back to the communities where its employees work, live and operate. For more than 15 years, Georgia Natural Gas has demonstrated this commitment by serving in many volunteer philanthropic efforts.

“Our motto is working together…serving together,” said Maurice Baker, Manager, Community Relations at Georgia Natural Gas. “It does the heart good to see so many of our employees giving their energy to so many worthwhile causes.”

“For years, we’ve been one of the leading corporate supporters of Georgia’s schools.  With a focus on Children/Education, Seniors, Energy Assistance, and the Environment/Sustainability, we offer our employees the opportunity to be fully engaged in the community through our TrueBlue Crew Employee Volunteer program,” Baker said.

Staying TrueBlue to the Community

The company has also donated millions of dollars to nonprofit organizations throughout Georgia.

“Our commitment to the community is as strong as our commitment to our customers,” says Baker. “Every year, we participate and support important Georgia causes like JDRF, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, public schools, the Woodruff Arts Center, Senior Connections and the United Way.”  The company is also a founding supporter of the Atlanta Science Festival.

Georgia Natural Gas also recognizes outstanding nonprofits throughout the state that are making a difference in their communities. This fall, the company will present its fifth annual Georgia Natural Gas TrueBlue Community Awards where it will award $50,000 in grants to deserving organizations.
