Chugach Electric Association is donating more than 6,000 pounds of turkey to 14 different local charitable organizations.  In previous years, Chugach has made similar donations.

Chugach will deliver the 450 turkeys to local charities Dec. 10 and 11.

The donation helps fill a need in the community for turkeys for holiday meals and food baskets that will be distributed throughout the local area.  Chugach purchased the turkeys from Carrs/Safeway.                                                                                                       

Chugach is the largest electric utility in Alaska, providing power for Alaskans throughout the Railbelt through retail, wholesale and economy energy sales.
