NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–OneMain Financial, the leader in providing responsible access to credit to non-preferred customers, has implemented a Borrower Assistance Program to assist customers in Kentucky affected by recent flooding.

Support will be available through September 2 for customers in 13 Eastern Kentucky counties: Breathitt, Clay, Floyd, Johnson, Knott, Leslie, Letcher, Magoffin, Martin, Owsley, Perry, Pike, and Wolfe.
OneMain will be hosting a community relief event on Saturday, August 13 at the company’s branch in Hazard, KY to distribute supplies. Additionally, OneMain team members are leading online and in-person fundraising campaigns to gather food and other necessities.
