Chesapeake Energy, an oil and natural gas company headquartered in Oklahoma City, collaborates with local nonprofits to meet community needs and strengthen the places they call home. Currently, they have operation sites in six states: Louisiana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Wyoming.

Recently, Chesapeake Energy and its employees held a Chesapeake for Kids Week to raise funds for Community Health Charities, Special Olympics, Oklahoma Institute for Child Advocacy, and Children’s Hospital Foundation Oklahoma. 

The week’s events culminated with a children’s movie night, watching Peter Rabbit. Proceeds from donated concession items were contributed as part of Chesapeake’s CHC giving campaign, and children brought in their piggy banks to donate “Change for Change.” 

These “give back” weeks continue throughout the year as a way to raise awareness and introduce employees to a variety of Community Health Charities partners.
