Cool Companies

CINERGY A Cincinnati-based utility company that services regions of Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky, Cinergy Corp. not only provides communities with the energy they need to function, but offers the synergy they need to enhance community life. "The whole premise of our community involvement is based on the idea that you can't run a healthy company in an unhealthy community," says Joe Hale, president of the Cinergy Foundation, which funds the community-oriented corporate programs.
