You Can Help

This is the best run energy assistance program anywhere. The staff is outstanding! I not only add a dollar every month to my Eversource bill, but I also make donations above and beyond. There is no other local nonprofit that I have more confidence in than OpFuel.

No one should be cold in winter. Sometimes, people fall through the cracks. Operation Fuel is the safety net …

To have Operation Fuel come in was a god-send. They prevented shutoffs. No one wants that.
