Investment of state funding allows organization to serve more Vermonters
Vermont Business Magazine HomeShare Vermont has expanded to the Northeast Kingdom, creating more opportunities for Vermonters to access homesharing. As a result of the expansion, HomeShare Vermont will now serve Hardwick, Craftsbury, and Greensboro.
The nonprofit is bringing its more than 40 years of experience in matching hosts and guests for unique and fulfilling living opportunities to the Northeast Kingdom. This expansion follows a recent partnership with the Thompson Senior Center in Woodstock.
HomeShare Vermont’s extensive matching process considers individual’s needs, interests and lifestyles for hosts and guests seeking services.
With the addition of services in the Northeast Kingdom, HomeShare Vermont now serves communities in eleven counties across the state -- Chittenden, Grand Isle, Franklin, Addison, Washington, Lamoille, Orange, Rutland, Orleans, Caledonia and Windsor Counties.
“We are excited to create access to homesharing for some communities in the Northeast Kingdom,” HomeShare Vermont executive director Connor Timmons said. “Homesharing has proved to be a great way for Vermonters to live more affordable and social lives. This expansion will help even more people find housing and enjoy those benefits. We believe in creating unique, meaningful matches between hosts and guests, and we’re thrilled to be able to do that in the Northeast Kingdom.”
Earlier this year the state of Vermont allocated an increase in funds to HomeShare Vermont to assist with statewide expansion. This investment shows confidence in the proven model and enables HomeShare Vermont to continue to expand and provide support to hosts and guests.
HomeShare Vermont is a non-profit organization with over 40 years of experience, providing a comprehensive screening and matching service to people who have a home to share and others looking for a place to live. Our services are open to people of all ages and incomes. HomeShare Vermont is a funded agency of the United Way of Northwest Vermont. homesharevermont.org
