Eastern Propane & Oil Joins Forces with Veterans Count to Serve NH’s Military Community
Rochester, NH – November 20, 2025 – In the days leading up to Veterans Day, communities across New Hampshire came together to show their respect and appreciation for all those who had served this great nation. In addition to these events, Eastern Propane & Oil donated $30,890.34 to Veterans Count, a program of Easterseals New Hampshire. The donation reflected Eastern’s commitment to giving back, with one penny contributed for every gallon of propane delivered by its five Veterans Count–branded delivery trucks over the previous year.
“At Eastern Propane & Oil, our mission has always been about more than just keeping our communities warm — it’s about caring for the people who make them strong,” said Whitney Cloutier, Brand and Marketing Manager at Eastern Propane & Oil. “We’re honored to stand alongside Veterans Count through our penny-per-gallon program, helping support the veterans and families who have sacrificed so much for all of us. Their courage and commitment inspire us every day. We’re also deeply thankful for our customers, whose trust and loyalty make it possible for us to give back in meaningful ways.”
All funds donated will go directly to helping Veterans Count provide essential services and care coordination for service members, Veterans and their families of New Hampshire.
“We’re incredibly grateful for Eastern Propane & Oil’s unwavering support,” said Pamela Hawkes, Chief Development Officer for Easterseals NH & VT. “Their dedication to walking alongside us in service to New Hampshire service members, Veterans, and their families have helped elevate our reach and deepen our impact.”
