Chugach attended the Anchorage Home Builders Home Show at the Alaska Airlines Center the weekend of April 20-21. Chugach employees had a great time interacting with the community and were happy to answer questions and talk about what's going on at Chugach. We are always pleased to get out in the community and connect with members.

Chugach is donating more than 1,600 pieces of computer equipment including desktop computers, monitors, computer arms, and laptops to the Anchorage School District (ASD).

Chugach is continuing its tradition of supporting Alaska families over the holidays by donating 450 turkeys to ten local non-profits. For more than 20 years, Chugach has donated turkeys to local non-profits to fill the need for holiday meals throughout the local area. The turkeys are purchased from Carrs/Safeway and distributed by Chugach. The organizations receiving the turkeys this year include:

The electric utility industry is going through a major transformation in Alaska and around the world. Chugach is a leader in keeping up with those changes as we continue to evaluate new ways to generate electricity. This video looks at Chugach’s short-term plans and long-term vision as technological advances, particularly in energy storage, may be realized. As you will see, there are many options for moving forward during this historic energy transition.

Chugach was pleased to sponsor the ARC of Anchorage’s Trunk or Treat event on Sept. 16. The Arc of Anchorage has a variety of services for Alaskans who experience intellectual and developmental disabilities and behavioral and mental health challenges. The annual fundraiser brings out hundreds of Anchorage families to “trunk or treat” in a safe environment, raising money for a good cause.

Chugach employees recently volunteered their time packing and distributing food boxes for Children’s Lunchbox, a program of Bean’s Cafe. Chugach’s Employee Volunteer Program allows employees to donate 16 hours a year to local nonprofits during normal work hours. The program is a great way for Chugach and its employees to give back and strengthen ties with the community.
