Give a Deserving Local Family the Gift of Home Comfort
For the Knecht family, every day is a day to celebrate family, thankfulness, and our sense of community. This year, were giving back to the community that has supported our family-owned business for over 62 years through our “ANC Has a Heart” campaign. Lloyd Sr. alongside his sons Lloyd Jr. and Ryan, are giving away a home heating system to a deserving family.
Here's How It Works:
From now until February 14th, we're inviting you to nominate someone in your life— a neighbor, friend, or family member - who has consistently given back to the community but might now need a helping hand. Whether they've suddenly faced hard times or simply deserve a little extra warmth, we want to hear their story.
To submit a nomination, simply click the Nominate Today button on this page and tell us why this individual deserves to receive the gift of heat. Please provide as much detail as you can. Our committee will review each nomination on February 15th and select one deserving community member. Both the nominator and the nominee will be contacted to share the exciting news. Then we will schedule the installation of the brand new Amana furnace or Daikin ductless heat pump with same-day installation—free of charge, courtesy of ANC Heating and Air Conditioning.
