"At Questar we strive to be good corporate citizens in the communities where we live and work. We nurture a culture in which "giving back" is ingrained in the way we think about our relationship with the community. We're proud of the generosity and spirit of volunteerism that thrives in Questar people. Our Questar Employee Volunteers log thousands of hours each year to volunteer at schools and other agencies. We encourage Questar employees to support the United Way - and we match their donations when they do. We've endowed foundations that provide financial support to the arts and education. Simply put, "giving back" is part of the Questar way".
