South Carolina's poor get emergency help to heat
homes

Press
South Carolina's low-income residents
will get $1.3 million to heat their homes.
The federal money goes
into the Low Income Home Energy Assistance program that the state
administers through the Gov.'s Office of Economic
Opportunity.
"Between the recent cold snap we've had and the
economic difficulties so many South Carolinians are going through right
now, this money couldn't have come at a better time," Gov. Mark Sanford
said Monday.
Last week's frigid temperatures set demand records at
utilities that will show up soon on residents' utility
bills.
