TCOG Takes Client Services on the Road

SHERMAN, Texas (Jan. 20, 2016) – Atmos Energy today announced it will donate a 19-passenger mobile services bus to Texoma Council of Governments Wednesday, Jan. 27 at 2 p.m. to help serve North Texas counties.

“Our shared future depends on the economic strength and social well-being of our communities. That’s why Atmos Energy is excited to partner with TCOG to help those in need,” said Sherry Kelly, Atmos Energy vice president of operations Mid-Tex Division.

The bus will provide client services, including energy assistance for the low-income, underserved population of Cooke, Fannin and Grayson counties.

“TCOG is thrilled and thankful to be the recipient of the Atmos Energy mobile services bus. The acquisition of this bus increases our ability to achieve TCOG’s mission of improving quality of life as we take TCOG Client Services “on the road” to reach folks in rural areas,” said Dr. Susan B. Thomas, TCOG executive director.

This marks the sixth mobile services bus donation from Atmos Energy to various community action agencies since 2012. All buses are retrofitted inside and out, Wi-Fi accessibility, new tires and a custom wrap.
