On August 24, 2024 VHI held a public meeting at the Vinalhaven Lions’ clubhouse in Vinalhaven (thank you Lions!) to celebrate the $840,000 award from Maine Housing for our first project on East Boston Rd. Attendees were able to purchase the fashionable VHI T-shirt designed by Project Director Dylan Jackson, discuss VHI activities with VHI board members and friends, listen to remarks from Board President Elin Elisofon and Dylan and ask questions. It was a stimulating afternoon and we thank the attendees for coming. The event helped raise awareness of affordable housing issues on Vinalhaven and VHI’s efforts to address them.
