A message from the Board of Directors of Energy Share of Wyoming…
Thank you for stopping by the Energy Share of Wyoming website. We have had a very successful 2023-2024 season and have been able to provide utility bill assistance to hundreds of Wyoming clients in need.
Unfortunately, we are only able to continue making payments until our funding is depleted, and we will reach that point on March 5, 2024. After this date, we will no longer be accepting applications.
Please check back later in the year, our energy assistance season will re-open on December 1. 2024.
