Sustain Mid Maine Coalition has contracted with Vaughan Woodruff from Insource Renewables in Pittsfield to administer our Solarize Mid Maine program.  This solarization project will reduce costs for homeowners who decide to install solar panels.   After a consultation, if home owners decide to go forward with solar, participating in the program will lower the expense.   The total cost includes licensing and permitting, equipment and installation, and connection to Central Maine Power.  Installations before the end of 2016 will qualify for a thirty percent Federal Income Tax Credit and the potential bulk cost discount of 8-10%.

Waterville, ME— United Way of Mid-Maine, having over 60 years experience partnering with local businesses to address the pressing needs of the people living, working, and learning in the Heart of Maine, has announced the expansion of these collaborative efforts with the launching of a new “365 Small Business Circle” program.

Community Investors Initiative

Jun 24, 2015 by

Hello! The Poverty Action Coalition, a local group of people who came together to alleviate poverty in Waterville, has created a new initiative called the Community Investors. Community Investors are members of the community who receive weekly emails about individuals or families in need who could use your help. The requests featured in these emails come from residents of Waterville who have been referred to us through KVCAP, General Assistance, or the Mid-Maine Homeless Shelter. These agencies sit on the Community Investors Committee, which convenes to insure that the people making requests face a significant barrier to maintaining their current quality of life or moving out of poverty. The Community Investors Initiative has only been in place for a few months, but in that short period of time we have helped several families meet...
