Rooter Hero Gives Back Year-Round Through Hero Helps Program
Rooter Hero Plumbing and Air is a chain of more than a dozen independently owned and operated businesses operating under a single brand in California and Nevada. The company offers a wide array of plumbing and HVAC/R services to its residential and commercial customers.
In keeping with the company values put forth by founder John Akhoian—Faith, Integrity, Respect, Service, Teamwork—Rooter Hero seeks to give back to the communities it serves through its Hero Helps program. The program partners charities with local Rooter Hero businesses. To date, Rooter Hero employees have joined more than 40 events, performed more than 289 free jobs, and donated more than $155,000 to worthwhile causes.
This year alone, Rooter Hero has given back through Earth Day volunteering, donations to the Ronald McDonald House, by donating a commercial ice maker to a local high school, and by helping to fill neighborhood food pantries.
This Thanksgiving Rooter Hero franchises:
- Helped prepare Thanksgiving dinner for the woman and children at the Union Rescue Mission in Los Angeles. The URM is a faith-based, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that has been serving the homeless and needy since 1891.
- Participated in the Drumstick Dash, LA’s Largest Thanksgiving 5k/10k run. Hero Helps volunteers helped get all the runners checked in, distributing event shirts, and did all they could to make the event a success. Proceeds from the Dash went to help Hope the Mission provide over two million hot meals for homeless men, women and children.
