The Pottstown Cluster is accepting applications now for home heating oil assistance. If you or someone you know is in need of fuel oil please visit: https://www.pottstowncluster.org/oilassistance/. The service area is determined by zip code. Requirements include a valid photo ID, the most recent 30 days proof of income for all adult household members, a completed application, permission for the release of information, and a current photo of the fuel oil gauge. Delivery of 150 gallons of oil will be on a first come first serve basis for those who meet all the eligibility requirements. An adult must be home when a delivery is made. Applicants will be able to recertify for additional assistance, but there are no guarantees that grant money will be available. It is anticipated that the program will expire in the Spring of 2025.
