Why They Support Us

"For nearly 175 years, Washington Gas has been part of the Washington, D.C. metro area and our role in the community goes beyond providing energy. We have a long-standing commitment to service and to making a difference in the lives of our customers, our employees and members of the communities we serve. Education is one of our key philanthropic focus areas and we value the opportunity to support the next generation of leaders by providing resources for students attending HBCUs. That is why we are honored to support the Williams-Franklin Foundation as they endeavor to support HBCU students with extreme financial need through their college years to graduation. "
