Commitment to Nonprofits

SCG and CNG‘s commitment to the community is something you can take to the bank, like the Connecticut Food Bank and the Diaper Bank, two of the hundreds of nonprofit organizations we support through grants and donations. Our companies also partner with Operation Fuel to help those having difficulty paying their energy bills. You can help too, by adding $1 to your monthly bill. See how you can partner with UIL to help those in need by visiting the SCG or CNG websites, or follow us on Facebook and Twitter.
