With many facing cutbacks due to a fluctuating economy, saving money in important to many families. An electric bill can be one of the highest expenses for families to pay for. For some, it may not be possible to pay this bill in full without causing financial strain. This can leave many seeking assistance for electric bill costs.

Many electric companies offer programs that can help with electric bill costs. These programs are often on a first come, first served basis and may have eligibility requirements. This may allow households to pay a flat rate for electricity service or only a portion of the total bill. There may be a waiting list for additional programs that provide financial assistance, or families may be able to use them as needed.

Other programs may be offered by third part sources such as non-profit organizations. This organizations can also help provide assistance for electric bill expenses. Church groups are a good source for help finding assistance, and may be able to point families towards groups who can help.
