Our Story
As one of Virginia’s oldest corporations we aspire to “be a citizen wherever we live, work and serve.” At Virginia Natural Gas, our values, which include Safety First, Intentional Inclusion, Acting with Integrity and Superior Performance, are reflected in how we lead, engage, collaborate and perform as a team. In living these values, together we can make a difference in our communities through Virginia Natural Gas Foundation grants, charitable giving, community engagement and employee volunteerism.
Our corporate impact and charitable giving focus reflect our company values. They also reflect the values of our employees who show their commitment to our community through participation in company events, and giving freely of their time, talent and resources to organizations throughout our service territory. Through use of non-ratepayer dollars and grants from our Foundation, we are investing in partner organizations that are making a big difference in the lives of our customers, neighbors and the communities we call home.
