Help Us Prevent Lung Cancer Through Radon Mitigation
What we need: $6,000 to $14,000 annually to fix 4-8 homes for low-income families in Maine.
Why we need your help: Since the Fall of 2019, the Maine Indoor Air Quality Council has been partnering with other Maine nonprofits to test the radon-in-air levels of low-income homes in Maine.
Statewide testing data helps us estimate that between 4 and 8 of the homes we test will require mitigation, for a total expenditure of $6,000 to $14,000.
Your donation of any size takes us one step closer towards achieving that goal to protect vulnerable Maine families from lung cancer due to radon exposure.
Test your own home: If you’ve never tested your home for radon, or if you haven’t tested in the last 5 years, let us know, and we’ll send you a radon test kit. (lab fees apply)
Participate in the annual Indoor Insanity 5k: Proceeds of the Indoor Insanity 5K support radon testing in low income households in Maine. Join the crowd and help us prevent lung cancer one lap at a time.
