Wellsville: Hart Comfort House receives $5K grant from Siemen's Energy in video campaign

As 2020 neared an end, volunteers of the Allegany County Comfort House in Wellsville came together to film a sixty second video on why the end of life facility should receive money from Siemen's Energy (Former Dresser-Rand). The 'Hart House' did not not receive the most votes in a nationwide effort, but it was enough to earn the nonprofit thousands of dollars. Siemens Energy employees nominated local charitable organizations to have the opportunity to receive donations of up to $10k each...122 organizations across 20 states were selected to receive a donation. 

The announcement comes on a special day for today is the beginning of the 10th year of operation of the Hart Comfort House!  Ten years ago we accepted our first resident.  What a ride it has been.  Over these past 9 years we have cared for 216 people and their families.  We comfort them, care for them, laugh and cry with them.  

You can watch the video HERE. Just search for Hart Comfort House.

Here is the officials Siemen's News Release:

On the occasion of the Martin Luther King holiday, the only federal holiday designated as a day of

service, Siemens Energy is pleased to announce the winning charitable organizations of the

company’s recently launched Positive Energy campaign. “On this national day of service, it’s

important to recognize the value of serving in the places where we live and work,” said Steve

Conner, president of Siemens Energy, Inc. “These organizations demonstrate service to their

respective communities today and every day.”

Siemens Energy celebrated its recent spinoff from Siemens AG with a campaign to spread positive

energy in the U.S. through donations to its employees’ favorite charities totaling $250,000 across

20 states. The nominated charities each created a one-minute video explaining their organization’s

mission and how they would use a donation of up to $10,000 to continue serving their respective

community. Each video was uploaded to a gallery, where members of the public could vote for

their favorites by “liking” the videos.

A total of 122 charities were ultimately selected to receive donations ranging from $500 to $10,000

based on a combination of public “likes” and scores earned from a panel of judges. The complete

list of winners can be found in the attached document.

Evelyn Sabina, program coordinator for $10,000 winner Dream It Do It Western New York (WNY)

said “We can’t thank Siemens Energy enough for their continued support for Dream It Do It

WNY. Through student mentoring, classroom visits, school tours, internships, teacher workshops

and more, Siemens continues to be a driving force behind our mission: To encourage our talented

youth to pursue STEM related careers in Advanced Manufacturing.”

Michael Richter, executive director for the Construction and Maintenance Education Foundation

(CMEF) in La Porte, TX, another $10,000 winner, said “CMEF truly appreciates this generous

donation from Siemens Energy. This donation will help us to continue to promote our effective and

passionately supported Community Based Workforce Development, Outreach, and Craft Training

programs.”

Apoorva Savanur, a member of the $10,000-winning Robbinsville FIRST Robotics Team 2590, based

in New Jersey, said "Being selected as a grand prize winner for the Siemens Positive Energy

Campaign means we are able to continue our STEM outreach both in our immediate community

and beyond. The funds will enable us to create engineering kits to engage local children in STEM

challenges during the Covid-19 pandemic. We will also be able to continue our global outreach

initiative for children in Nairobi, Kenya."

As a newly independent company, Siemens Energy’s mission is to support its customers in

transitioning to a more sustainable energy system based on the company’s innovative technologies

and ability to turn ideas into reality. In support of this mission, the Positive Energy Campaign was

aimed at providing donations to local charities that make a clear impact on their respective

communities, especially in a year when the COVID-19 pandemic has created an increase in basic

human needs across society.

“We know that many of the organizations our employees support are struggling due to the

pandemic, and we are excited to be able to help all the charities that participated in our program,”

said Conner. “Siemens Energy’s purpose is to energize society, and this campaign focused on

helping difference makers throughout the U.S. turn their ideas into reality to build stronger, more

sustainable neighborhoods and communities.”
