Deron Williams, Utah Jazz and Questar Gas Help Utahns in Need

SALT LAKE CITY (April 24, 2009) – On Saturday, April 25, during the Utah Jazz vs. Los Angeles Lakers playoff game, the Deron Williams Point of Hope Foundation, Questar Gas and the Utah Jazz will present a donation of $21,000 to charity.  Funds will be contributed to REACH, a program that helps low-income, elderly and disabled Utahns pay their gas bills. 

Representing the Point of Hope Foundation during the presentation will be Deron Williams’ wife, Amy.  President and chief executive officer of Questar Gas, Ron Jibson, and Jazz team president, Randy Rigby, will also participate.

Each time Deron Williams logged an assist during Jazz regular season home games held in March and April, $200 was donated to REACH.  Williams completed 105 assists, generating a total of $21,000 in charitable contributions. 

Williams, the Jazz and Questar Gas are committed to giving back to the community and assisting those in need.  Each year, Questar Gas employees, shareholders and customers contribute more than $300,000 to the REACH program.  Consumers can support the program by making a one-time donation or monthly contributions with their gas bill.  To participate, call 1-800-323-5517 or log on to www.Questargas.com.
