The City of Georgetown is proud to sponsor the Good Neighbor Fund, a program to assist eligible Georgetown Utility customers who are having difficulty paying their utility bill. Voluntary contributions from customers like you fund this program, which is administered by The Caring Place on behalf of the City. Every dollar helps! Contributions can be made to the fund by paying the total due on your utility bill, plus an additional even dollar amount, or request that the City "round up" to the nearest dollar. You can make this a monthly pledge, which will be billed to your utility bill, and can be cancelled at any time for those families paying their bill electronically.
You can enroll in this program by completing the pledge form on-line at the City’s web site or by picking up the pledge form at the City offices at 300-I Industrial Avenue or at The Caring Place.
In 2018, The Caring Place helped 2,543 people with utility bills by providing over $168,093. $59,932.74 additionally came from the Georgetown Good Neighbor Fund.
