Overview
The PNM Reduce Your Use Grants support nonprofits in New Mexico and Texas by providing funding for energy-efficient projects. These initiatives aim to lower electric bills and enhance essential services, contributing to a cleaner environment. The PNM | TNMP Foundation believes in trust-based philanthropy, helping organizations build resilience and thrive. By focusing on solar installations, upgraded systems, and energy-efficient appliances, the grants empower community partners to invest more in their missions while saving costs.
We provide targeted and flexible grants that strengthen organizations holistically, rather than funding isolated programs.
We multiply our impact through matching and volunteer grants that amplify PNM and TNMP employee and retiree community engagement.
These grants help nonprofits focus on spending less on electric bills and more on providing essential services by giving them funding for projects for solar panel installations, updating heating and cooling systems, energy efficient lighting, energy saving appliances, etc.
