Neighbor Helping Neighbor

New Hampshire winters are tough and can sometimes put a serious strain on a household's energy budget. PSNH established the Neighbor Helping Neighbor fund in 1986 in an effort to assist customers who can't afford to pay their electric bill but do not qualify for federally funded fuel programs.

By adding an extra dollar to their electric bill payment, or by sending a contribution directly to the Neighbor Helping Neighbor fund, customers help other customers in need. In 1992, this program expanded to include other New Hampshire utilities statewide, and now helps more than 1,100 families with financial hardships each year.
Applications for assistance through the fund are available through the Community Action Program agencies throughout the state.
