FALL RIVER — Barry Ketschke, director of Dominion Energy’s Brayton Point Station, said that because of the effective work Citizens for Citizens does through so many programs it was chosen by the Dominion Foundation to receive $10,000.

The Somerset plant director called CFC “a great organization” and he recalled how a few years ago took part in Operation Christmas telethon then joined with station personnel in distributing toys to needy families at the Griffin Street office.

“We buy a lot of fuel to run the Somerset plant and we are very aware of the high cost of energy ourselves. Our employees live in the area. This donation from the foundation is to help area residents cope with the high cost of heating their homes.

“CFC is at the forefront of aiding those struggling to get by heat their homes this winter. The donation is our way of thanking CFC for its good work and for us to be part of the community.”
