Need Assistance with Your Gas Expenses?
If you’re facing challenges in paying your natural gas expenses, the Gas Support Grant Program (GSGP) might offer the opportunity to receive a one-time grant equal to the gas bill amount, capped at $400.00. In cases where the eligible applicant is 55 years or older, or there is an older adult (55+) in the household, an additional $100 can be granted, allowing for a maximum total grant of up to $500. Moreover, individuals experiencing specific financial hardships could qualify for supplementary grant funding. Make an appointment with a local agency to determine the potential support available for your household.
The Gas Support Grant Program is a collaborative initiative between SoCalGas® and United Way of Greater Los Angeles. United Way collaborates with non-profit organizations across our service region to manage this program.
