Windham Heat Fund meets a goal

The Brattleboro Reformer reports that the Windham County Head Fund was started by Richard Davis and former state representative Daryl Pillsbury five years ago as "a way to raise local funds to supplement the federal and state money that goes toward helping low-income people purchase heating fuel." The group works closely with local social service agencies and aims to ensure that anyone who truly needs help finds and gets suppot. Last year, the Fund "gave out about $23,000 to local residents," and this year, the Fund is hoping to raise $50,000 to "meet the rising need brought on by high fuel prices and tough economic conditions."
