Share the Pennies is a bill round-up program that provides grants to low-income homeowners to make weatherization and energy efficiency repairs in their homes.  Example:  If your utility bill is $113.50, it's rounded up to $114 and 50 cents is donated to MIFA to fund the Share the Pennies Weatherization Assistance Program (see below).
