YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The ongoing federal shutdown has stalled the Home Energy Assistance Program, or HEAP, which thousands of Long Islanders rely on to heat their homes. With about 70,000 residents affected, local nonprofits like the United Way are stepping in through Project Warmth to fill the gap. Demand for emergency heating aid is soaring, with seniors and single parents struggling to choose between food, prescriptions, and paying for heat. FOX 5 NY's Jodi Goldberg has the latest.
