Fuel Fund of Maryland Information

Since 1981, our drive is to provide emergency financial intervention programs and services to a qualifying applicant who has no power in their home, or an impending turn off notice from BGE. Our role in the utility assistance process is to determine the potential FFM financial grant for which the applicant may be eligible for (as described on the APPLY page); not to determine BGE balance(s), OHEP* eligibility and/or OHEP* financial assistance. *Benefits program administered by the State of Maryland An applicant, who receives a financial grant from the FFM, will be asked to pay a portion of their outstanding balance since they are the “owner” of their utility bill.
