United Way of Hays and Caldwell counties is offering to help people in those counties pay their utility bills if they were negatively affected by the new coronavirus.
Priority will be given to low-income individuals, people with high energy burdens, vulnerable people older than 60, people with disabilities, families with children who are 5 and younger, and veterans.
Those interested can print and mail or email an application, found online.
“Organizations and businesses are beginning to furlough or lay off valued employees with no date for their return in sight,” United Way said in a statement. “This is putting great strain on many families who work in the retail, hospitality and other industries in our community.”
Those who would like to donate can visit www.unitedwayhaysco.org/covid-19-response.
