The Wayne County Chapter offers a number of
Community Services in the Wayne County Area:
Project Share & Community Heating Fund:
The Red Cross partners with NYSEG and Rochester Gas & Electric to alleviate energy emergencies.
This fund is supported by contributions from RG&E & NYSEG, RG&E & NYSEG customers, RG&E & NYSEG employees and the Greater Rochester and Fingerlakes communities.
The program provides grants to eligible applicants to alleviate heating emergencies such as a lack of fuel oil, wood, propane or potential discontinuation of natural gas or electricity service. This fund helps people who do not qualify for government assistance such as HEAP. For a complete list of guidelines please contact the office and speak with Raquel.
