Impact

The resolution highlights the positive impact that CGC has had on local communities through financial contributions and volunteer efforts. CGC's investments in LIHEAP and other local organizations, such as the Chattanooga Area Foodbank and the United Way of Chattanooga, underscore its role in combating energy poverty and assisting vulnerable populations. By recognizing these efforts, the resolution reinforces the importance of corporate responsibility in fostering community well-being and addressing social issues.

Summary

HJR0797 is a resolution that honors and commends the Chattanooga Gas Company (CGC) for its longstanding commitment to providing excellent service to customers in Tennessee.
