  • A copy of a past due bill.

The Summit Heating Assistance fund cannot assist with the following scenarios:

  • Making payments toward accounts that were inactive, or any account that had been closed over 30 days.
  • Provide payment assistance toward deposits, connect fees, etc.
  • The person who is applying for heating assistance, must be the same as customer of record on the account

 

    Additional Facts

    The Heart of Arkansas United Way will utilize the ALICE Criteria to determine if the customer qualifies for heating assistance. ALICE stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. These income requirements take into consideration earnings and monthly budget in an attempt to expand qualification for assistance to those who are above the poverty line but are struggling to make ends meet.
