DeKalb EMS recently received a $2,000 donation from Middle Tennessee Natural Gas Utility District through “Project Hometown Help” program. Assistant DeKalb EMS Director Trent Phipps was on hand to accept the donation from Mike Corley, General Counsel for Middle Tennessee Natural Gas.
Funds from the Hometown Help voluntary program come from an automatic rounding up of participating customers’ bills to the next highest whole dollar amount. This funding is used to advance education, assist economic development, promote local charities, and provide relief to the disabled and elderly for payment of natural gas bills.
