MAKE A DIFFERENCE ONE PENNY AT A TIME SECO’s Pennies from Heaven program was established to make a difference in local communities. SECO members enroll in the program to donate to Pennies from Heaven each month. Once enrolled, SECO will round your monthly energy bill to the nearest dollar. The extra pennies fund local social service agencies and other causes that offer assistance to your fellow SECO members in need.
These funds assist other SECO members – who might be your neighbors, friends or even family – with paying an electric bill or recovering from a unique hardship such as fire, tornado or hurricane damage. Through the generous contributions of SECO members who participate in the Pennies from Heaven program, members who are struggling will not have to choose between paying their electric bill or purchasing food or medicine. The average annual donation per member is small – about six dollars per year – but collectively, members who enroll in SECO’s Pennies from Heaven program make a big difference in our communities. 362905
