Times Charities: Help with a high bill
Throughout the holiday season, Times Record News will be sharing stories of how Times Charities has aided our partner nonprofit organizations in helping individuals throughout the past year.
An elderly woman went to the Salvation Army in Wichita Falls for help paying an electric bill.
She said she was on Social Security and could not afford the overage on her electric bill.
Through Times Charities, the Salvation Army was able to pay the bill in full and help the woman request average monthly billing to keep her from being hit with high bills. As a result, the woman was able to get back on an affordable budget.
Times Charities, a nonprofit created by the Times Record News more than 20 years ago, raises money during the holiday season to address financial woes throughout the calendar year. Times Charities also helps area veterans get back on their feet.
Donations to Times Charities go to the four partners: Faith Mission, Interfaith Outreach Services, The Salvation Army and Grace Ministries in Burkburnett.
Overhead expenses are not paid from donations.
No money is spent from the Times Charities account until the situations of those seeking help are verified by our partners.
Donations can be made in the form of cash, checks and debit or credit cards. Online donations are also welcome through https://wichitacf.fcsuite.com/erp/donate.
Make checks payable to Times Charities/WFACF, and mail them to 2405 Kell #100, Wichita Falls, TX 76308.
