Worcester County GOLD (Giving Other Lives Dignity) improves the quality of life for Worcester County residents living in low-income circumstances by providing emergency financial assistance and items to meet basic needs. 

All requests for assistance are submitted by agents employed with our thirteen partnering agencies to ensure eligibility and verify the circumstances of the emergency. 

Financial assistance payments are made directly to the vendor like a property manager, utility provider, auto body shop, grocery store, or doctor's office.
