FRNP Donates to Local Nonprofit Organizations

Employees at Four Rivers Nuclear Partnership along with corporate partners Jacobs, Fluor and BWXT recently raised more than $55,000 to benefit three nonprofit agencies.

The company provided a dollar-for-dollar match up to $15,000 to employees who contributed to the fund to benefit Community Kitchen, Family Service Society and Ballard County Family Focus. Employees exceeded the match, contributing $19,140 through an employee payroll deduction campaign. 

In addition to these funds, parent companies Jacobs and Fluor each donated $10,000 and BWXT added $1,000. The total contributions totaled $55,140.

“Our communities in western Kentucky have been tremendously impacted by this pandemic. It is a privilege to work with our employees and our corporate partners to provide funds that can help minimize the negative impact that COVID19 continues to have on this region,” said FRNP Program Manager Myrna Redfield. 

“Since the beginning of this crisis, the many volunteers of Paducah’s Community Kitchen have been providing healthy meals to more than 1,000 guests each weekday,” said Community Kitchen Executive Director Sally Michelson. "As is our mission, we respond to a great many needs in addition to hunger, and this crisis has seen a dramatic increase in those needs. We are so blessed by organizations like FRNP who have stepped up to help us in this time.”
