The Wheels for Warmth program in Vermont achieved a new milestone this year by raising $115,000 to assist residents in heating their homes. This initiative collects old tires to generate funds dedicated to heating support.
Wheels for Warmth collects used tires from the community, partnering with local businesses and volunteers. The proceeds from tire recycling directly translate into financial assistance for heating costs.
"This record fundraising means more families can afford to stay warm this winter," said a program representative.
By turning old tires into vital heating aid, Wheels for Warmth not only supports vulnerable Vermonters but also promotes environmental responsibility through recycling.
