Dear Community Leaders –
In our continued efforts to keep you informed about Washington Gas’ commitment
to provide timely information to customers, the attached documents are provided
here for your review.
DC Homeowners Assistance Fund (HAF)
Offers energy assistance to DC Homeowners. Financial assistance from HAF to
District residents trying to make housing-related payments. Eligible homeowners
impacted by COVID-19 can apply for grant funding to cover mortgage payments and
other housing expenses, including utility payment assistance, up to $4,000.

Arrearage Management Program (AMP)
The AMP grants forgiveness of past due balances. AMP provides guidance,
resources and assistance to customers who are unable to pay their energy bills
on time during the COVID-19 pandemic. Washington Gas created this program to
assist customers by forgiving past due debt when new bills are paid. AMP
assists customers by helping to:
• Lower or eliminate existing COVID-19 related past due balances
• Bring accounts current
• Help manage the budget when costs are rising
• Avoid disconnection
• Reduce financial stress
Enrollment is required.
One of our primary objectives is to ensure that customers are aware of all
programs that Washington Gas provides for their benefit. We are certain that
these two new initiatives will provide support where needed most. We greatly
appreciate your assistance in disseminating this important information to DC
residents through your various distribution systems (e.g., listservs,
newsletters, etc.). As always, we welcome your questions and/or feedback.
Please feel free to share this information with your networks.
Best regards,
