As part of its commitment to supporting the community in which it operates, Susquehanna Steam Electric Station (Susquehanna) recently announced that it donated over $103,000 to the Berwick Area United Way. Susquehanna raised the funds through its 11th annual Susquehanna/United Way Charity Golf Tournament and its 3rd annual Susquehanna/United Way Sporting Clay and Trap Shoot event. Collectively, Susquehanna has raised nearly $900,000 through these events since their inception.

“Susquehanna Station is proud to support the Berwick Area United Way through our annual golf tournament and sporting clay and trap shoot,” said senior vice president Chief Nuclear Officer, Brad Berryman. “We are grateful to all the volunteers and sponsors who helped to make these events a success, especially Kip McCabe, project manager – Work Management, who again served as golf tournament Chairperson, and Joey Alba, Electrical Maintenance superintendent, who chaired the shoot fundraiser. Our thanks also extend to our committee members and vendor partners for their participation and support.”

Susquehanna employees organize and participate in these annual events to raise funds for the many local programs and agencies that the Berwick Area United Way supports. Susquehanna’s vendors and key partners also participate and help sponsor the events, and this year, vendors constructing Talen’s Cumulus data center campus also joined and supported the events. In addition to these events, Susquehanna supports the Berwick Area United Way through an annual employee giving campaign, donations for their Stuff the Bus school supply drive, and volunteer resources for their annual Day of Caring.
