Project DESERVE
Project DESERVE provides emergency assistance paying energy costs for people with a severe disability (children or adults meeting Social Security disability criteria), older adults (people 65 years or older) and income-eligible households. Applicants may receive a one-time payment of up to $100-$300, depending on their eligibility, to be applied toward an energy bill over a rolling 12-month period. Center of Hope determines eligibility based on need and household income. If you think you might be eligible for Project DESERVE assistance, please contact Center of Hope at 316-219-2121 or Evergy at 800-383-1183.
