Baltimore, MD (July 11, 2008) – Baltimore Gas and Electric Company today announced that it will contribute $500,000 through the Constellation Energy Foundation, over the next five years to Chesapeake Habitat for Humanity for the purpose of renovating and rehabilitating 100 homes in the Monument-McElderry-Fayette community of east Baltimore. The contribution will come from the Constellation Energy Foundation which is funded by shareholders, not customers. The utility’s support also includes a commitment to help limited income customers manage rising energy costs through education, conservation and energy efficiency.

“BG&E is once again taking responsibility and getting involved to help some of our most vulnerable citizens,” said Mayor Dixon. “This is a great demonstration of leadership and care for the community, and you have set an example for other companies to follow.”

Today’s announcement is an extension of BGE’s ongoing community outreach efforts including energy assistance contributions which will total more than $7 million and reach more than 20,000 customers in 2008. This total also includes BGE customer-funded bill credits through the Fuel Fund.
