For this week’s blog, we wanted to give a shout out to our customer, Peoples Natural Gas, for their commitment to the community. Peoples Natural Gas is known for providing safe and natural gas service to over 700,000 homes throughout western Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Kentucky. They were recognized this week for their contribution to the “Love Your Block” grant program. The block revitalization program awards grants to purchase supplies and tools to help community volunteers revitalize blighted lots in neighborhoods throughout Pittsburgh into usable green space. Peoples Natural Gas generously donated $15,000 to help make this program possible.

According to the recent article, “Love Your Block Announces 14 Fall Grant Recipients” on popcitymedia.com, Pittsburgh’s Mayor William Peduto stated:
“I am happy to announce that LYB is once again uniting neighbors, community members and volunteers to improve their neighborhoods by turning blighted properties into usable green space. These projects exhibit the sense of pride and spirit of volunteerism that are regularly demonstrated by so many citizens that live in the unique neighborhoods of Pittsburgh.”
