Giving Back to the Community that Supports Us

At Anderson, we believe in more than just providing fast, reliable home services — we believe in showing up with heart. That’s why our team created Random Acts of Plumbing, Heating & Air, homegrown effort powered by our dedicated employees to give back in unexpected, meaningful ways.

Or Mission

Random Acts of Plumbing, Heating & Air isn’t just a catchy name, it’s a commitment to kindness. Our mission is simple: support the people, causes, and organizations that matter most to our team and the communities we serve. Whether it's helping a neighbor in need, sponsoring local schools, assisting veterans, or giving to local shelters, we’re proud to lend a hand where it counts.

How It Works

The heart of this program is our people. Anderson team members nominate causes, lead local initiatives, and roll up their sleeves to make a difference. From surprise service donations to volunteering at food banks or hosting community events, our team looks for opportunities to serve our neighbors and community.

Our Impact

What started as a few kind gestures has grown into a movement. Through Random Acts of Plumbing, Heating & Air, we’ve helped hundreds of families and partnered with dozens of local charities. Whether it’s repairing a broken furnace for a family in crisis or supporting a teacher’s classroom wish list, we’re honored to use our skills to lift others up.

Get Involved

We believe generosity is contagious. That’s why we invite our customers and neighbors to be part of the movement. Know someone who could use a helping hand? Have a cause close to your heart? Let us know. Together, we can keep the random acts rolling — one good deed at a time.

How We Give Back

Susan G. Komen San Diego

Susan G. Komen San Diego is a local organization that provides free mammograms, biopsies, ultrasounds, care coordination, education and financial assistance for breast cancer patients’ most critical needs during treatment. The organization is also the largest nonprofit funder of breast cancer research outside of the U.S. government. We regularly participate in the annual San Diego Race for the Cure, our Find a Cure Friday program, fundraising and more.

Troops to Trades

Troops to Trades helps veterans by providing them with career placement options, training grants and scholarships to help them find careers. As a qualified Troops to Trades member, we have made an official commitment to hiring veterans, Reserve and National Guard members, and we put our marketing dollars behind it!” We produce and run paid online and tv ads to support this patriotic recruiting initiative.

Girl Scouts San Diego

Mary Jean Anderson, a Girl Scout Alumna, was invited to be the keynote speaker at the Girl Scouts’ 2015 Volunteer Conference. She GLADLY volunteered her time to share how her scouting experience has helped shape her life and her company. More recently, she has served as a mentor and has instigated company-wide support for the local troops. Besides helping a scout send 200 boxes of cookies to our troops, our company has made a financial contribution and donated a mini-split air condition system with installation for their offices.

San Diego Police Foundation

We’ve supported the K9 Unit for the San Diego Police Foundation and also helped purchase kits for officers to carry in the trunk in the event they need a tourniquet type device. We were proud to find out that the money we earned was put to use right away. In the first six months, this equipment ended up saving a female police officer's life. Had it not been in her trunk she would have died. It is an amazing feeling to know we can make a difference.

Foundations of Sharp Health

Anderson is proud to support the Foundations of Sharp Health, a not-for-profit health care system. The three Foundations of Sharp HealthCare support the programs and services of their respected regional medical centers and specialty hospitals, enabling Sharp to provide the highest quality care for their patients.

Crisis House

Mary Jean Anderson is a member of the Board of Directors for Crisis House, which provides humanitarian services to those in crisis in East San Diego County. The men, women, and children we support struggle to overcome complex and challenging circumstances, including domestic violence, addiction, health conditions, and lack of access to food and housing. Crisis House responds immediately to connect people to services that can help resolve life-endangering situations so they can renew their lives.
