In the end, the funding will fall on local people helping other local people.In Surry, as in many other towns in Maine, we have such a local program, the Surry Fuel Assistance Program. This program helps folks stay warm in the winter. This program is administered by the towns selectmen but is funded entirely by donations from residents and businesses. There is no local, state or federal tax money supporting this program.Given that other government programs are being cut and the poor economy, the need for fuel assistance is growing. I encourage readers to find out if their community has a fuel assistance program and if they do, support it. And if you live in Surry our program can always use your donations.Its easy to donate, just send a check or stop by the town office and give what you can. In addition to knowing you are helping folks in your community, your donation is also tax deductible. Remember, all of the money you give to the Surry Fuel Assistance program will keep your friends and neighbors warm this winterWilliam Matlock, selectmanStephen Bemiss, selectmanSurryStand up to FDAIn the ex
