Thanks to the generosity of Vermont fuel dealers, along with local businesses and organizations, the Split the Ticket program will provide more than 6,000 gallons of free heating fuel this winter.
Vermont’s heating fuel dealers are mostly small, family-owned businesses that live in the same community where they work and know first-hand who is struggling to heat their home. They are often the first to respond in a crisis, especially when the family is unaware or unable to receive government assistance’ or simply too proud to ask for help from others.
Here’s how the Split the Ticket program works: Heating fuel retailers agree to donate a delivery of oil, kerosene, or propane to a neighbor in need. Those pledged gallons will be matched with donations from the community. Please consider helping Split the Ticket with a Vermonter in need this winter. All funds will be used to match fuel donations by Vermont’s oil and propane dealers’none are used to administer the program.
