    Summary

    Washington Gas developed the Charitable Giving Program to serve its community members through contributions, in-kind support, and volunteer resources. The Giving Program focuses on three primary areas:

    1. Bright Futures: Emphasis is placed on educational activities targeted toward youths in the kindergarten to twelfth grade age range. Attention is given to the development of math, science, technology and business skills. Consideration is also given to arts-related programs.
    2. Environmental Champions: The focus in this area is on programs that promote cleaner air and water and that protect and preserve the ecological system of the metropolitan region.
    3. Healthy and Safe Comunities: Consideration is given to health organizations that strive to improve the health and well-being of individuals within the community. Emphasis is also placed on energy assistance programs for low-income residents to heat and cool their homes, reducing illness and casualties resulting from exposure to extreme temperatures.
