More than a business.
Community outreach.
At Condon Total Comfort, doing business in the Ripon area is only part of what connects us to the communities we serve. It is our mission to help programs that seek to make a positive difference for people living in our community: our neighbors. Here are a few of the joyful times when being in the HVAC business opened a door for us to offer a neighborly hand in central Wisconsin.
Traded Treasures & Community Food Pantry
Traded Treasures & Community Food Pantry creatively combines cash donations and proceeds from the sale of gently used clothing and furniture to purchase food to distribute to needy area residents. When CTC learned that their food pantry operation needed to expand, they gladly stepped up with a new HVAC system, assuring a comfortable store experience for volunteers and visitors alike.
Green Lake Area Animal Shelter
If you have ever visited the CTC office at 11 Blackburn St. in Ripon, you can guess that we have a soft spot for "furry friends." So it is easy for us to want to join those who support the Green Lake Area Animal Shelter as they match cats and dogs with new "furever" homes. We recently featured an Adopt-a-Pet focus at a CTC Open House to help make connections and raise much-needed funds for the shelter and its programs. This local shelter lovingly kennels, feeds, exercises and provides veterinary services for abused and abandoned pets, and has done so for over 12,000 rescued companion animals since being founded in 1993! When the shelter recently faced a heating and cooling "rescue" of their own, Condon Total Comfort was eager to donate some needed HVAC equipment and labor to help keep our four- and two-legged friends in Green Lake comfortable and safe.
Non-profit organizations.

Dare to Believe
CTC believes in the importance of recycling, especially when it comes to the loads of expired equipment that is an inherent byproduct of the HVAC business. So when CTC was introduced to the locally based non-profit organization, Dare to Believe, an even greater purpose for recycling emerged. Dare to Believe, is a "waste nothing," world-focused, Christian ministry that raises funds from recycled materials to help the needy. They work hard to dismantle equipment and separate the scrap metal ultimately used to raise funds for flood victim relief or long-awaited rural schools. Recently, those reclamation steps turned a year's accumulation of waste furnaces and air conditioners into funds for a new orphanage in northern India.
"We've been blessed to contribute to a cause where 'wasting nothing' can mean everything to someone in need."
-Debra Werch, Vice President at CTC
Dare to Believe's purpose is to prevent orphan and lower caste children from being sold into slavery and prostitution, provide an alternative to prostitution for the women of the lower caste (Dalit) villages, offer education to orphans and lower caste villages, share the love of Christ with the remote villages of India and beyond, train those with a passion for Christ to share His message, and encourage others to step out of their comfort zone to live for Christ.
Do you Dare to Believe?
Make-A-Wish Foundation Wisconsin
A wish is granted every 33 minutes, on average, somewhere in the United States and its territories. Make-A-Wish believes that a wish experience can be a game-changer. This one belief guides them in everything they do. It inspires them to grant wishes that change the lives of the kids they serve.
