ABC: A Better Community Program provides an opportunity for City of Mesa Utility Bill customers to easily contribute to their community through donating money with their monthly utility bill payment.  For FY2007-2008 the Office of Human Services allocated $153,300 to the community. Non-profit agencies that provide human services to Mesa residents are eligible to apply for the donated funds. Requests for proposals  are solicited each year with money donated from July through June available for allocation. Mesa ABC donations are fully tax deductible. Please join the other Mesa utility customers who contribute to Mesa ABC by adding $1 each month you will help to make Mesa A Better Community.

Round Up for A Better Community! 
Call 480-644-2221 to sign up for an ABC Program voluntary contribution option.  Donations can be billed in recurring fixed amounts or monthly bills "rounded up."
