No One in Our Community Should Go Hungry.
Through CPG Cares, City Power & Gas partners with local food banks across New York and Pennsylvania to ensure families have access to nutritious meals.
Why Local Food Banks?
The Backbone of Community Hunger Relief
Food banks are the quiet, consistent heartbeat of every community. They work without fanfare — stocking shelves, organizing distributions, and making sure that a family going through a difficult season doesn’t have to add hunger to their list of worries.
We chose to support local food banks because we are a local company. We serve homeowners in specific communities across New York and Pennsylvania, and the food banks we support serve those exact same communities.
Local Impact Matters
As a community-based energy provider, City Power & Gas supports the same neighborhoods we serve by strengthening the food banks families rely on every day.
Why It Matters
The Facts That Drive Our Commitment
1 in 9
New Yorkers
Approximately 1 in 9 New Yorkers — including 1 in 6 children — faces food insecurity. The numbers are similar across Pennsylvania communities.
It happens in every zip code
Food insecurity affects families in suburbs and cities alike — including neighborhoods where you’d least expect it. It’s closer to home than most people realize.
Food banks multiply impact
For every $1 donated to a food bank, the community receives the equivalent of several meals — because food banks source and distribute at scale what individuals cannot.

Why We Chose This Cause
Local Company. Local Giving. Local Impact.
City Power & Gas doesn’t serve a national abstraction. We serve specific streets, specific zip codes, and specific families across New York and Pennsylvania. The food banks we support serve those same streets.
When you switch to CPG, your energy bill doesn’t just keep your home running. It helps ensure that a family a few blocks away doesn’t have to choose between keeping the lights on and putting food on the table. That connection is real — and it’s immediate.
