Process to apply to Project Share or donate

Intermountain Gas Company Idaho Project Share is available year round. Contributions are collected from January to December, but much of the money tend to be paid out during the winter or summer months when the demand for utility bill assistance is greatest.

While funds are collected from donations year round, there is never enough money to assist everyone in need. Priority will always be to help those in a true crisis pay their energy bills. Others that have a history of missing payments, that have no hope of sustaining the account on their own, or that have multiple disconnections in their past will be less likely to get aid. They may be referred to LIHEAP or some other energy assistance program as an alternative.

The amount of money paid out may be in the tens (and rarely hundreds) of dollars. It will be enough to pay a portion of what is due. Maybe it allows the Intermountain Gas Company Idaho customer to keep their lights on for a few-several more weeks until they can improve their hardship on their own. Intermountain Gas Company Idaho and Project Share is therefore one time utility assistance that addresses short term needs.

As noted, the contributions come in year round. This means that someone can sign up for the round up service whenever they want. Or they can mail a one time check in to Idaho Intermountain Gas Company Project Share in order to donate. The contributions are tax-deductible, and 100% of the money goes to the program to help customers. Anyone can give back as well.
