Kansas Gas Service Raises $278,000 in Donations for United Way.

Kansas Gas Service, a division of ONE Gas, Inc., today announced that its employees and retirees pledged more than $139,200 to the United Way.

With the ONE Gas Foundation matching every dollar, more than $278,400 will support organizations across the state that address the local needs of the communities we serve.

“In a year that has been full of challenges for so many residents, I’m proud that our employees continued with their longstanding commitment to charitable giving,” said Sean Postlethwait, vice president of operations for Kansas Gas Service. “We believe that serving our customers goes beyond providing natural gas service – it’s also about helping create a better tomorrow for our communities.”

Kansas Gas Service’s 2020 campaign featured virtual meetings with company ambassadors and local United Way speakers, biweekly e-newsletters and contests.

“Like most companies, we had to navigate through the challenges of fundraising during a pandemic,” said Lindsay Freeman, regional community relations manager for Kansas Gas Service. “Our employees responded by surpassing our goals and once again demonstrating how committed they are to help those in need.”

Kansas Gas Service’s campaign supports more than 30 United Way chapters.
