Added capacity and amplified the impact of partner service organizations (i.e., family resource centers, transit agencies, regional planning commissions, energy committees, area food shelves and pantries, planning projects, senior living facilities, community groups, health and wellness through institutions HR departments, active mobility groups, professional and volunteer advocates/organizations; and technical assistance to businesses and decision-makers representing State of Vermont, regions, businesses and municipalities. 1080 trolleys distributed in 2024 with trolley sales averaging $41.50/trolley.
