❄️ Important Winter Fuel Assistance Update
Massachusetts has expanded heating assistance for the 2026–2027 heating season, and we want to make sure families in our community know that help may be available.
* 🔥 HEAP applications are open now.
* đź’° Eligible households using heating oil or other delivered fuels may qualify for increased assistance.
* 🏠Homeowners and renters may apply.
* 📋 If you’ve received fuel assistance before, make sure your renewal/application is complete and all requested documentation has been submitted.
* 🆕 Middle-income households may also qualify for help. Households that exceed the regular HEAP income limits may be eligible for a separate one-time heating-oil benefit of up to $680.
* đź“… That additional middle-income benefit is expected to become available in December.
* ⏰ Apply early. Don’t wait until your heating fuel is running low. Applying early can help prevent delays once winter demand increases.
* ❤️ You do not need to be a Falmouth Energy or Hiller Fuels customer to apply for assistance.
Please share this information with a neighbor, friend, senior, or family who may need a little extra help staying warm this winter.
