Support GNEFSUPPORT THE GOOD NEIGHBOR ENERGY FUND is the simple message from our Divisional Commander. Major David E. Kelley, in a letter sent around the Commonwealth, reminds everyone the GNEF is for the many individuals and families who need assistance but fail to qualify for federal and state assistance. And those numbers are growing rapidly every day.

Energy customers can donate by using the mint-colored Good Neighbor Energy Fund donation envelopes found as an insert in their monthly energy bills or through the “add a dollar” program some energy companies offer. People can also donate with a credit card by visiting www.magoodneighbor.org or by calling 800-SAL-ARMY.

Or, simply make a check payable to “The Good Neighbor Energy Fund” and send it to The Salvation Army, 25 Shawmut Road, Canton, MA 02021-1408.
