SCHNECKSVILLE, PA., June 3, 2025—Sustainable Energy Fund (SEF) has announced the Family Promise of Carbon County as the Nonprofit Energy Makeover Contest winner. The Contest will award Family Promise of Carbon County an energy efficiency upgrade at no cost to the organization.

“This opportunity represents a meaningful step forward in our mission to support families in need while promoting environmental stewardship and sustainability. As an organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of those we serve, we recognize the importance of energy efficiency and sustainable practices in fostering a healthy and vibrant community,” said Cathy Lamm, Executive Director of the Family Promise of Carbon County.
