Direct Energy said that it has created new programs, "to support customers, communities and those working on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic."

During May, Direct Energy has pledged to donate $10 for new customers who enroll with Direct Energy. For Texans that join, the funds will be donated to the Neighbor-to-Neighbor program (noted below), and for those in other states, the donations will support Children's Miracle Network (CMN) Hospitals.

Additionally, Direct Energy will match any donations made by customers this month to CMN Hospital's COVID-19 Impact Fund, up to $25,000.

Already this year Direct Energy donated $600,000 to the company's Neighbor-to-Neighbor program, which helps Texans pay their electricity bills. In January, Direct Energy donated $500,000 to the fund, and when the pandemic started, contributed an additional $100,000 to provide even more support to those in need.
