Since 1983, Dollar Energy Fund has worked to help limited-income households maintain or restore basic gas, water, wastewater and electric service. Our holistic approach also connects those in need with resources beyond utility assistance, which helps to lead our clients onto a path of self-sufficiency.
Start by contacting your utility company. They will help determine your eligibility and provide you with information on a number of different assistance programs available for customers in need.
Apply online through MyApp Connect, or use our Agency Finder to locate a community-based agency that can help you apply in person. To complete your application, you’ll need a copy of your utility bill and proof of income for everyone in your household.
Our team reviews your application and documentation to verify your eligibility. If you qualify, we'll work directly with your utility company to apply an assistance grant to your account or enroll you in the programs you're eligible for.

Use our eligibility tool to see if you may qualify for assistance.
The eligibility tool is not an application for assistance. It's designed to help you determine whether you may be eligible for programs offered through Dollar Energy Fund. Any information and documentation you provide during the application process will be verified by Dollar Energy Fund staff. Assistance is provided to eligible utility customers on a first come, first served basis while funding is available.
