HELPING OUR NEIGHBORS STAY WARMER THIS WINTER!
We're excited to officially launch our 2026 Winter Weatherization Kit Distribution, sponsored by Focus on Energy! This year, Wild Rivers Habitat for Humanity is distributing up to 1,000 FREE winter weatherization kits throughout Northwestern Wisconsin, thanks to an incredible network of community partners! We've revamped our program to make it easier for households to access weatherization resources close to home.

📅 NOVEMBER 1–15, 2026
📍 18 distribution locations across Northwestern Wisconsin!

Here's what you need to know:
✅ FREE — no income verification required!
✅ No advance registration needed
✅ One kit per household
✅ First come, first served, while supplies last
✅ Available during participating locations' regular business hours

A HUGE THANK YOU TO OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS!
We've been overwhelmed by the enthusiasm and willingness of local organizations to help us bring these resources directly into their communities!

PLEASE SHARE! Help us spread the word so more households can benefit from this free community resource!
