Contributing to RECare is an easy way to help your fellow members! This program distributes funds to low-income energy consumers in Benton and Buchanan Counties via community action agencies. Donations help pay these members’ heating bills or weatherization costs.

ECI REC would like to thank all the members who are giving to others in our communities. Even a small amount can help those less fortunate. From July 2022 to June 2023, 57 members contributed to RECare through monthly contributions. Eight members contributed via one-time donations. In total, these members contributed $6,479. Those donations assisted 11 members in need, with an average assistance of $467.46 going to each household.

Help ECI REC reach our goal of exceeding that number of participants in 2023–2024! To sign up for RECare or make a one-time donation, call 877-850-4343 or fill out and return our website form.
