Oil Heat Cares

Oil Heat Cares is about giving back to the communities in which we live and work. It's about oilheat professionals giving of their time and talent to help those less fortunate by volunteering to work for a day on a local project. It's also about showing our customers (and potential customers) that Oil Heat really does care, and on a very personal, and very local level.

Oil Heat Cares raises money by sponsoring events and then uses that money to purchase major equipment at a discount from the manufacturers.

Members of OESP chapters identify the needs in their local communities, and then submit the proposed projects to Oil Heat Cares for approval. Once approved, Oil Heat Cares provides the major materials for the job, while volunteers from the OESP chapter do the work on a Saturday or a Sunday. On the day of the job, competitors show up and work together in a spirit of fun and camaraderie. Oil Heat Cares signs on the front lawn, and coverage by the local press afterwards, show oilheat in a most favorable light. Everyone wins!

Throughout the year, OESP chapters compete for the Oil Heat Cares Cup, a trophy awarded (along with bragging rights) to the chapter that has accomplished the most good, and presented oilheat in the most positive way during the previous year. The trophy is presented at the annual OESP convention.

You can get involved by sponsoring or attending an Oil Heat Cares fundraising event. You can also suggest a project at a OESP chapter meeting. And you can volunteer your time and talent on a project.

Get involved. It feels great!
