Power outages on Martha's Vineyard aren't just an inconvenience — for our most vulnerable neighbors, they can be dangerous. ⚡
Island Elderly Housing has been working hard to install 14 automatic backup generators at IEH residences, ensuring our Island's low-income elders and disabled residents are safe and comfortable no matter what the weather brings.

Watch our video to hear why this campaign matters — then help us make it happen. Every dollar brings us closer to reliable power for the residents who call IEH home. Thank you to the Martha's Vineyard Regional High School - MVRHS for producing the video!

There's something magical about this time of year on the Vineyard, and this stunning Wisteria blooming out front of Woodside Village is proof. 🌸💜

Nature has a way of reminding us to slow down and appreciate the beauty right outside our door.

During last week's Blizzard, we had a lot of help from the community. We are so grateful for the support!

A heartfelt thanks to our two local fire departments, police departments, and EMTs for their prompt, professional assistance.

We have found we can always count on them, and that is very reassuring, especially during a blizzard. Thank you to Cronig's Market for generously donating food during the storm to residents who were relocated and to Mary and Ray Gosselin for delivering the food.

To the Mansion House staff for their kindness and attention to our residents. Their support made a real difference. Thank you to Cole Powers, IEH President, who was in touch with me throughout the storm and afterwards, lending a hand wherever he could.

Most importantly, thank you to our residents. Your patience, cooperation, and kindness toward one another—and toward our staff– did not go unnoticed. Emergencies are never easy, but the way you looked out for one another truly reflects the strength of this community.
