Our Way of Saying Thank You to the Grand Strand

The Season of Giving is our way of saying thank you to the community that's supported us for more than 60 years. Somewhere in Horry, Georgetown, or Brunswick County, a homeowner is getting by with a system that barely works, or no heat at all. We want to help them start the new year comfortable.

Why Choose Our Season Of Giving HVAC Giveaway?

Every neighborhood along the Grand Strand has someone who's always the first to help others and the last to ask for help themselves. Maybe it's the neighbor who checks on everyone after a storm. Maybe it's a single parent stretching every dollar, a veteran on a fixed income, or a family still recovering from a hard year. Maybe it's you.

When the heat goes out in December, it's more than an inconvenience. It means space heaters, extra blankets, and worrying about the kids or an aging parent on a cold night. A new HVAC system won't fix everything, but it can take one big worry off someone's plate and let them spend the holidays warm and comfortable at home.

That's what the Season of Giving is about. Since 1965, this community has built Vines, one home and one family at a time. Giving back is part of who we are, and this year we want to help you thank the person who deserves it most.
