Rhode Island Fuel Funds

The Good Neighbor Energy Fund is available to any Rhode Islander who, because of temporary financial difficulty, cannot meet a month's energy expense and has not qualified for or received other energy assistance funds. The Fund grant is given only one time per family per heating season and a recipient must exceed LIHEAP income guidelines. Sponsoring gas and electric companies match customer donations. The faith-based community also donates to the Fund. The Energy Fund is administered by the Salvation Army of Rhode Island.
