County of Ottawa issued the following announcement on Jan 24.
Help ‘freeze’ heating costs for less fortunate.
With the cold weather comes a seasonal fear for some families: heating bills and how to pay for them. Community Action Agency in Ottawa County assists financially qualifying families with utilities, but they need your support. Join Walk for Warmth so that, together, we can keep kids warm this winter. ALL of your gifts stay in Ottawa County. A one-time helping hand paying an energy bill can make a big difference to a neighbor struggling to stay financially afloat. You can:
Walk the 2-mile stroll in Zeeland on Saturday, February 5 at 8:30 a.m. Register online at miOtawa.org/w4w. You can also register that morning at City on a Hill located at 100 Pine Street in Zeeland. Make a donation of any amount and join others walking for the cause. If a financial gift is not in your budget, you can simply walk to raise awareness that there are people grappling to make ends meet right here in Ottawa County.
Walking in the bitter cold not for you? Unable to make it on February 5? You can donate to Walk for Warmth at miOttawa.org/w4w. Checks payable to Walk for Warmth can be sent to Community Action Agency, 12251 James Street, Suite 300, Holland, MI, 49424.
