MVP in the Communities We Serve
After the heavy storms swept across areas of our MVP communities, including the Mid-Hudson Valley and Vermont regions, MVP got to work connecting communities affected by flooding with resources to stay safe and healthy.
Seeing various needs emerging quickly in the wake of this disaster, MVP reached out to at-risk customers in affected areas to extend our concern and support, in addition to assisting with local relief efforts for impacted customers and community members.
In the Mid-Hudson region, MVP provided water and snacks for residents in need, in partnership with Golub and the Northeastern Regional Food Bank. Organization-wide collaboration continues through an MVP Emergency Response team to coordinate additional efforts in the Mid-Hudson area, and we are working with our partners from UVM Health Network to identify needs and closely coordinate relief efforts for community members in Vermont.
Please, don’t hesitate to contact us if you need help. Call us 1-800-TALK-MVP. We’re here for you.
