Our neighbors are feeling the heat from:
Climate change

Rapidly rising energy costs
Make a difference right here
in Addison County!
Addison County’s Climate Economy Action Center (CEAC) seeks support for its Energy Navigators program, a free service that helps Addison County residents save money, be more comfortable, and reduce the use of fossil fuels.
We provide energy coaches to residents through a personal, neighborly approach.
Our amazing staff and well-trained volunteer team have conducted over 250 navigation visits since Energy Navigators launched in 2024.
Over 50% of our services are to low- and moderate-income households.
Entering our third year, we are seeing real results: better insulated homes, new cold-climate heat pumps, home solar panels and much lower energy bills.
Our clients consistently report that this highly personalized approach is essential to moving forward with clean energy projects. Our approach is unique in Vermont, providing a “last mile” connection to resources and services that many find hard to find on their own.

“Thanks to you we have a nifty new heat pump hot water heater!”
“Had a great experience with Energy Navigators.
The contractors they recommended . . . did professional, neat work and our two units were installed in a day. Excited to have these versatile devices for dehumidification, cooling, and heating.”

Would you help the Electrify Addison County fundraising campaign to continue to provide this valuable service to Addison County? Energy Navigators has already attracted interest and support from private foundations, local municipalities, and state and national programs. We are being asked by communities to continue this program, and are eager to do so. In the face of national cuts to funding for clean energy, your financial support is urgently needed.
Our goal is to increase the number of donors and the amounts that they consider giving. Increased local funding is critical for our continued operation.
With the shift away from climate solutions at the federal level, a greater focus on local programs and services is needed. Local climate action is one area where your gifts can make a difference. Please consider where you might fit in the chart below.
