As spring and summer approach, Ninth District Opportunity is preparing to offer home cooling help for the elderly and medically homebound. Households in the district in which every member is 65 and older or is medically homebound may apply beginning next month.
Eligibility for the energy assistance program is based on household income. Those who qualify will benefit from a one-time check payment to their energy supplier up to $400.
NDO will begin taking applications for assistance at 12:01 a.m. April first. You may schedule an appointment then by phone at 855-636-3108 or online at www.ndo.org/eap.
If funds are still available on May 3, members of the general public may apply.
NDO assists low-income individuals and families in 25 North Georgia counties.
