Despite the early spring weather, mid-February is still too early to assume we’re out of the woods when it comes to turning on the heat. The good news is that for many low-income residents in Shoreline, it’s not too late to receive up to $1,000 to help with energy bills.
Hopelink offers assistance through the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP), which helps with the cost of electric, gas, oil, propane, wood and coal. For Puget Sound Energy customers, Hopelink also offers help with gas and electric costs through the Puget Sound Energy Help Program (PSE HELP). Assistance is available to both low-income renters and homeowners who live within the Hopelink service area. You do not need to be behind on your bill in order to qualify.
Call 1-800-348-7144 to make an in-person appointment at Hopelink’s Shoreline Center. The line is open 24/7 and is available in English, Russian and Spanish.
