H.E.E.R.O.
Just a few extra coins a month can help keep a family afloat with its utility bills.
Staying on top of utility bills can put a significant burden on low-income individuals and families. Your donation to HEERO (Help with Emergency Energy Relief Operation) can ease the cost of energy bills for people who might need a little extra help.
How to become a HEERO
Once you're signed up as a HEERO, you can round up your electric bill to the next dollar or pledge an even dollar amount you'd like to contribute each month. TEP will distribute your donation to the Salvation Army, which uses the money to provide assistance to people identified by the Emergency Services Network, a group of human service agencies that serve Tucson's low-income population.
No contributions are used to administer the program. All donations are tax deductible and you may cancel your participation at any time by calling TEP at (520) 623-7711 or by putting a note in your next electric bill payment.
