From Application to Completion.

We have made it simple.

Our process is designed to be straightforward and supportive, ensuring we can effectively provide electrical services to disabled veterans. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how we work.

How It Works:

1. Apply Online

Start by visiting our “Apply for Services” page on this website. You’ll complete our online application form, where you can tell us about your current electrical needs and describe your situation in detail. Please provide as much information as possible to help us understand your request.

2. Application Review

Once we receive your application, our team will carefully review it to ensure it meets our initial eligibility criteria. We’ll be looking to confirm your disabled veteran status and assess the general scope of work required.

3. Schedule an Interview

If your application moves forward, we’ll contact you to schedule a brief interview. This can often be done remotely (e.g., via phone or video call) and helps us learn more about your specific needs, discuss any challenges, and answer your questions.

4. On-Site Assessment & Planning

Following a successful interview, we’ll arrange an on-site assessment at your residence or business. Our qualified professionals will evaluate the electrical work needed, discuss potential solutions, and then develop a detailed scope of work and project plan. This ensures everyone is clear on what will be done.

5. Permit Application (If Required)

For work requiring official approval, we will take care of applying for all necessary electrical permits with your local authorities. This crucial step ensures that all work complies with local codes and safety regulations.

6. Schedule & Begin Work

Once permits are approved (if applicable), we’ll coordinate with you to schedule the work at a time that’s convenient. Our team will then begin and complete the electrical services according to the agreed-upon plan, focusing on safety, quality, and your comfort.

7. Final Walkthrough & Follow-Up

After the work is completed, we’ll conduct a final walkthrough with you to ensure your satisfaction. We’ll also provide any necessary instructions or maintenance tips.

General Questions

Electrical Power for Heroes is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing free and/or discounted electrical services to disabled veterans. Our mission is to enhance the safety, functionality, and accessibility of their homes and businesses.

Disabled veterans often face unique challenges, including financial strain and physical limitations, which can make essential home repairs like electrical work difficult to afford or manage. We believe that ensuring a safe and functional electrical environment is a fundamental way to support those who have bravely served our nation.

We operate through the generous support of donations, and the dedication of skilled volunteers and professionals. Our process involves an online application, thorough vetting, on-site assessments, and professional execution of electrical work. You can learn more on our “Our Services” page.

Our goal is to provide services at no cost to eligible disabled veterans whenever possible. In some cases, a discounted rate may apply depending on the complexity of the project, available funding, or specific material costs, but our primary aim is to significantly reduce or eliminate the financial burden for recipients.

Do I Qualify?

Our services are strictly for disabled veterans who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces and have a disability rating from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) or Department of Defense (DOD).

Currently, our services are focused exclusively on disabled veterans. While we deeply appreciate the sacrifices of all first responders, our current resources and mission are specifically allocated to the veteran community.

As part of our application process, we require applicants to attest to their disabled veteran status and provide specific information (e.g., last four digits of SSN/VA File Number, branch of service). If your application progresses, we will request official documentation, such as a VA Disability Award Letter or other relevant military discharge papers (like DD214 with disability information), for secure verification.

No. While you must confirm your disabled veteran status with official documentation, we do not require you to disclose specific medical diagnoses or details of your disability on our application form. We respect your privacy regarding your health information.

Yes, you may still qualify. Eligibility is based on having any recognized disability rating from the VA or DOD, not necessarily a 100% rating. The specific level of disability does not, by itself, determine eligibility for our services.

How Our Process Works

After you apply online, we review your application for initial eligibility. If approved, we’ll schedule an interview, followed by an on-site assessment to plan the work. We schedule and then complete the electrical services. A final walkthrough ensures your satisfaction.

All electrical work is performed by licensed and qualified electricians who adhere to the highest industry standards and local electrical codes. Our priority is safety, durability, and professionalism.

The timeline can vary depending on several factors, including the volume of applications, the complexity of the electrical work, permit approval times (if required), and the availability of our teams. We strive to complete projects as efficiently as possible and will keep you informed of the estimated timeline throughout the process.

Our Commitment to Veterans

We are deeply committed to serving the veteran community. Our mission is to honor the service of our veterans who sacrificed for our freedom. We understand the unique challenges veterans face and are dedicated to providing reliable and affordable electrical services to help them modify their homes to meet their needs while ensuring electrical safety.
