Constellation supports OCO’s mission with generous donation
Posted on May 18, 2023
Oswego County Opportunities was the recipient of a $10,000 gift from Constellation in support of the agency’s many human services programs. The gift is part of Constellation’s commitment to supporting charitable organizations in the community it serves. OCO was nominated by Constellation Nine Mile Point Plant employee Jessica Piper as a result of the support and services OCO’s Services to Aid Families program (SAF) provided for a family member that was experiencing domestic violence. OCO welcomed her to its SAF house where she and her children could be secure and sheltered from the abuse.
“Discovering SAF gave us hope,” said Piper. “The support she received from everyone at SAF and OCO was invaluable. The staff at SAF empowered her to take control of her life. I am grateful to the SAF program and thrilled that OCO was chosen to receive this award.” Above from left are Site Vice President for Constellation Nine Mile Point Peter Orphanos, OCO Executive Director Diane Cooper-Currier, OCO Fund Development Coordinator Bridget Dolbear, Jessica Piper and Constellation Nine Mile Point employee Kyra Hayden.
