Minnesota Fuel Funds
- The state annually allocates a percentage of its LIHEAP crisis funds to local agencies for Reach Out For Warmth. This allows agencies to serve households who are in crisis but are over the 50% median income eligibility for LIHEAP.
- The Salvation Army and Minnegasco developed HeatShare in 1982.
HeatShare is funded through customer contributions from Minnesota
utilities and is administered by The Salvation Army.
