Hi,
Since you mentioned a county, we will send you 2 resources to try. One is focused on your area - maybe a place will help you and it is a list of assistance programs in Pulaski County MO.
The other is a statewide list of utility company assistance programs, as many offer help especially to veterans and the vulnerable. That list of options is here, and look here for Missouri utility company programs to pay bills.

I'm looking for any charities and assistants programs to help pay my electric bills. I was recently fired from my job and I'm still looking for new employment at this time but some places do not have veteran focused resources and my skills do not always transfer to private life. My electric is already past due and I'm from Waynesville MO Pulaski county. Any help I would very much appreciate thank you Jack

As far as the brain injury, she should ask the hospital for referrals to energy programs. But there are other resources as well as assistance programs in Lehigh County that she may be able to qualify for. Veterans tend to get priority. Also call the electric company and see if they offer any energy programs focused on veterans or even single moms.

Thank you,
Dear sir/madame
I learned about your program by the website my reason for writing you is about my water bill and utility bills. I fear having my services turned off by not being able to pay these bills. I live on a fixed income whereas I get a check once a month from the government which I also have a mortgage payment as well on a monthly basic.
I receives 1,215 dollar from the government. Being a widow of a veteran my monthly mortgage payment is $872.00 per month and I live alone. What kind of help can you offer me in paying my bills?
Right now I owes my utility company $108.53. I called them and I have until Friday to come up with the money to keep them from turning off my services. I am also a senior citizen of 62 year old, and my water company is Berkeley county water and sanitation located in Monks corner south Carolina. My electric company is Berkeley county. Please e-mail me and let me know if you can help me in paying this bill. Thank you for your time and concerns.
I'm writing for a friend who is going to have her electric terminated on Monday November 30, 2016. She is a veteran, has 2 small children and one has a traumatic brain injury and the other has asthma. I was wondering if there was any way she can receive help in stopping the termination service and getting the $2000 overdue bill paid. She is a hard working single mother that served our country and is now a veteran when discharged. She lives in Bethlehem Pennsylvania. Your prompt consideration in this matter would be more than just appreciated.
Thank you,
Generally veterans have access to grants. They can be federal programs, such as the VA, or local utility companies that focus on service members. When applying for help, be sure to note on an application that you are in fact a veteran. Here are various personal grants to try for utility assistance.

I am a veteran and student and also a father of four. I am having a difficult situation as to affording school supplies as well as very high energy bills during these tough summer months. I live in low income housing in the city of Abbeville Louisiana but due to the poor insulation in the 60 year old apartments, the electric bill has increased dramatically and with that comes problems with affording other bills and providing my children with their school needs. If there is any assistance you can provide, please contact me at this email address. Thank you for your time.

that LIHEAP program is usually pretty effective at helping veterans and/or the disabled. Did you apply yet? We can't tell from your request. You may also want to look into weatherization, as that may be a better solution for those drafts you indicate. Also, try calling the VA department too. Or learn more on LIHEAP low income emergency asssitance.
I have applied for energy assistance and weatherization help quite some time ago. I am currently 100 % disabled and totally unable to leave the house at times because of my COPD. My house is drafty and my front porch badly needs some attention and is causing drafts throughout the house. New windows and doors are also badly needed. Just recently I have received a large electric bill and I need to apply for the Federal program HEAP. Does you agency assist with this? I am a veteran. Thank you for any help you can provide.
Hello,
I’m writing this letter to your office inquiring if you can give me some emergency help with my utility bills. I am a veteran and my only income is my veteran’s disability pension which has been reduced recently from the normal amount that I was receiving. My wife and I have been separated from two months and I had to notify the veteran’s affairs that we are no longer together which then lead to the reduction in my pension check. I really need help, and I am hoping that your office may be able to help or lead me to a place or agency that can help. I did reach the Valdosta LAMP program but I was told that they were not helping anyone at this time. Once you receive this letter I would appreciate if you could notify me either by phone or my email address.
