Who We Are

Charlottesville Housing Energy Crisis is a team composed of students at the University of Virginia. We are interested in cyclical poverty and have invested ourselves in breaking the cycle by mitigating energy burden for residents of Charlottesville, VA. Our group has worked together on this project for four months, and seek to continue our work in supporting Charlottesville residents far into our future.
