At Arkansas Oklahoma Gas, we believe we're only as strong as the communities we serve. That's why we proudly support local nonprofit organizations across the Arkansas Oklahoma Gas service territory. Our commitment to community runs deeper than energy—it's part of who we are. We're honored to walk alongside organizations that spark hope, open doors, and nurture brighter futures.
The Summit Cares charitable giving program is funded by Summit Utilities, Inc., the parent company of Arkansas Oklahoma Gas. We are proud to offer grant funding to nonprofits in our AOG footprint.
Through our Summit Cares program, we focus our support on four key areas where we can make the most meaningful impact: meeting essential needs, enriching community life, protecting our environment, and inspiring curiosity through STEAM education.
Our 2026 grant application will be available April 6 through May 15, 2026.
