Because financial assistance programs are complicated and change frequently, resource providers sometimes rely on us to help people access them. We are a nonprofit organization and there is no charge for our services. Your personal information is only used to determine whether you are eligible for assistance.

Currently we work with:

Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP), which provides assistance with power bills, fuel costs and efficiency improvements for anyone who qualifies
Puget Sound Energy Home Energy Lifeline Program (PSE HELP), Bill Discount Rate Program, and NEW Past Due Bill Forgiveness Program, which offers PSE customers assistance paying electric bills
Cascade Natural Gas’s NEW Cascade Arrearage Relief and Energy Savings Program (CARES), which helps CNG customers with natural gas expenses
Washington State Home Energy Assistance Program (S-HEAP)*, funded by the State’s Climate Commitment Act, it provides assistance with electricity bills and efficiency improvements for anyone who qualifies
