Austin Energy is encouraging residents to "give the gift of comfort" this holiday season by paying a utility bill for a person in need.
Austin residents can pay any amount of another customer’s bill if they have the name and address of the recipient. From the Gift of Comfort website, residents can download the Gift of Comfort payment form. Once filled out, the form and payment can be delivered to one of the city’s utility payment centers or mailed to City of Austin-Payment Processing, P.O. Box 2267, Austin.
