Many of you have heard that Billy & I are an active part of our community group, HERO, here in town. Recently, we were awarded the first Iowa Utilities Board Grant of $5000 to do a Weatherization project in the Ballard area.
This was an effort by our entire group, namely those that had the ideas, wrote the grant, and then executed the efforts headed by Russell Zimmerman, our Vice President. It has also taken many, many volunteers outside of our organization to winterize over 50 homes on two Saturdays. A great thanks to all of the time and efforts from everyone.
Last night, our story was featured on Channel 13 news ... a few of our "men in blue" were shown working on a first-time homeowner's home. Please check out the video link at our website. We are VERY proud to be part of this organization and the work we are doing here in the community! Billy will be helping this Saturday to finish up the homes. If you live in the area and would like to be a HERO, please feel free to contact me.
