If you haven’t heard already, Caledonia County was just added to the major disaster declaration. This means residents of Hardwick can now apply for FEMA Individual Assistance. 

FEMA will have a mobile trailer set up at the Hardwick Elementary School. Residents can meet with FEMA at the mobile trailer to apply for assistance and have any questions answered regarding individual assistance.

We will continue to post fact sheets and pertinent information to our website as it becomes available.

Individuals – click here for more information.

Businesses – click here for more information.

Please share this widely with anyone that has been affected by the flood.

Flood Relief Loans for Vermonters & Businesses

As we’ve been working to reopen our branch services in Central Vermont, we’ve also been busy developing new loan options to provide financial relief to those impacted by the floods.

• Thanks to a partnership with the Vermont Community Foundation, we’re able to offer 0% financing on up to $3,000 for Vermont residents with our member emergency loan. Because the devastation is so widespread, we’re also waiving any credit requirements so anyone can get approved for much-needed funds.
• For members with existing loans, we’re offering two-month deferments, loan forbearance, and fixed reduced payments. For more information and to see which option is best for you, give us a call at 802/800 371-5162.
• Some of our local businesses have been hit the hardest. Contact our business lending team to learn about our three flood disaster business loans, ranging from $20,000 to $250,000 with a low, fixed rate.

If you have any questions or aren’t sure if you qualify for these flood disaster recovery loans, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We are here to support our members and our communities through these times of need.
