OUR MEMBER TESTIMONIALS
"I would like to thank you for assisting me in getting a grant from the State of Vermont for a new tank, slab and roof ….. Your furnace man told me my tank would need to be replaced, and told me about this grant for low-income households ….. Your staff helped me out a lot and I would like to thank each and every one of you. This is a big expense, and with your help I was able to get it done with little cost to me. Thank you all again. "
