<p>(Poughkeepsie, NY) Central Hudson Gas &amp; Electric Corp. has joined parent company Fortis Inc. and other Fortis subsidiaries to donate a combined $100,000 to the American Red Cross in support of residents and communities afflicted by Hurricane Harvey.</p>
<p>Fortis Inc. contributed $50,000, and Central Hudson donated $10,000 to the relief effort. Fortis subsidiaries Arizona-based UNS and Michigan-based ITC Holdings Corp. (the largest independent electricity transmission company in the United States) contributed the remaining $40,000 of relief aid.</p>
<p>"We all depend on one another during times of crisis, and so we are proud to join Fortis and our sister American subsidiaries in providing needed relief for those devastated by flooding and property damage brought about by this catastrophic storm," said Michael L. Mosher, President and C.E.O. of Central Hudson. "Our own region has known its fair share of weather emergencies, and we well recall the devastation brought on by past natural disasters.</p>
<p>"On behalf of our employees, I express sincere sympathy to the residents of Texas living in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey. We are proud to support them financially, and we salute their sense of community spirit and resiliency during the difficult recovery that lies ahead."</p>
<p>Central Hudson's contribution was provided by its shareholders and will not impact customer bills. Central Hudson also contributes significant in-kind support for many local causes, and employees volunteer thousands of hours each year across the region.
