Getting started.
Who this helps
Lincoln County households that need heating help may be considered, especially if state or federal programs do not serve them. A referral from a town General Assistance Administrator or Community Navigator is required.
How to get started
If selected for help, the fund contacts your local energy supplier to schedule and pay for a delivery.
Find your town office.
Use the Need Help page on the Community Energy Fund website to find your town office and its phone number.
Request a referral.
Ask your town's General Assistance Administrator or a Community Navigator for a referral to the fund.
