Every Sunday, we share half of our undesignated plate offerings with an organization that works toward our UU values. In November, half of the undesignated funds in the plate will go to the Penquis Fuel Assistance Program. Fuel Assistance (Home Energy Assistance Program, HEAP) assists income-eligible households in Penobscot, Piscataquis, and Knox counties with high winter heating costs. Homes may be heated with oil, kerosene, coal, pellets, wood, LP gas, or electricity.
For more information on their program, you can visit https://www.penquis.org/services/heating-utilities/heating-assistance-liheap/.
Last month, we shared $255 with Health Equity Alliance!
