The City of Denton, Texas, recently unveiled "Powerful Connections," an initiative that allows individuals to gift payments toward utility services -- electricity, water, and solid waste and recycling.
Participants can choose to gift a specific individual or business or send to an anonymous family in need.
"By lifting each other up, we create a more resilient and united community," said Christa Foster, Denton's Customer Service Manager. "Powerful Connections provides financial relief for those in need and offers a meaningful alternative for anyone looking to give a truly impactful gift."
