MXenergy Supports H.E.A.T.
Company demonstrates commitment to Georgia by helping families in need
Stamford, CT—November 30, 2006— MXenergy is proud to announce its partnership with The Heating Energy Assistance Team (H.E.A.T.) for the winter of 2006/2007. MXenergy has committed both financial and marketing support for the project through donations and solicitations of their customer base.
H.E.A.T. is a nonprofit organization that helps households in need pay their home heating bills. As the oldest statewide fuel fund in Georgia, it is supported by energy providers such as MXenergy, natural gas consumers, corporations and various organizations statewide. Last year nearly $1 million was distributed to thousands of families unable to pay their monthly bills.
"MXenergy is proud to contribute to H.E.A.T." said Jeffrey Mayer, CEO of MXenergy. “Through our contribution and the generosity of our customers in Georgia, we hope we can make a difference in the lives of those in need this winter.”
In addition to the corporate contribution MXenergy has made to the fund, natural gas customers throughout the state will have the opportunity to donate as well. Details of the program will be distributed along with customer bills throughout the holiday season. MXenergy customers who pay their bill online using MyAccount will also have the option to make online donations.
About H.E.A.T.
Established in 1983, H.E.A.T. began as a program of Atlanta Gas Light Company. With the deregulation of Georgia's natural gas industry, H.E.A.T. became a separate 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization in May 2000. The organization has helped address the energy needs of low-income Georgians by joining forces with concerned citizens, businesses and state and local governments. During the past 22 years, H.E.A.T. has distributed more than $14.5 million to nearly 73,000 families in Georgia. For more information about H.E.A.T. or to donate online, go to www.heatga.org.
