St. Andrew’s Oregon Hill House Warming

From announcement:

St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church is offering basic home energy-saving devices to households on Oregon Hill that want and need assistance in this area. Items include weatherization strips for doors and windows and interior window insulation kits. Windows and doors can account for up to 20% of the air leaks in a house. Reducing them and the solar gain in houses can save as much as 10% to 25% on heating and cooling bills (See Energy Savers: Tips on Saving Energy and Money at Home, produced by the US Department of Energy). Our hope is to help households reduce the cost of utility bills while also caring for God’s creation.

On October 31 from 10:00 am to Noon and on November 1 from 1:00 to 3:00 pm, volunteers will be canvassing the Oregon Hill neighborhood to identify those households that need and want this assistance. If you are home and interested, please welcome them!

If you’re interested in volunteering, please contact Abbott Bailey at abailey@standrewsec.org. Volunteers will be given a simple script to follow and an area to cover. We’d love to have some more neighborhood folks join us in our House Warming efforts.
