Five Star Cooperative (New Hampton, IA) is proud to announce a new year-round veterans and first responders discount on residential propane, reinforcing its long-standing commitment to serving local communities and honoring those who dedicate their lives to protecting others.
Beginning November 11, 2023, in recognition of Veterans Day, Five Star Cooperative launched a residential propane discount program offering 5 cents off per gallon for eligible veterans and first responders. This veterans and first responders discount applies to residential propane customers and is designed to provide meaningful, ongoing savings for households that rely on propane for heating, water heating, cooking, and other essential home energy needs.
“At Five Star Cooperative, we believe in giving back to the people who give so much to our communities,” said a Five Star Cooperative representative. “Veterans and first responders make incredible sacrifices every day. This veterans and first responders discount is one way we can say thank you for their service and support them with dependable, affordable residential propane.”
Honoring Service with a Year-Round Veterans and First Responders Discount
The veterans and first responders discount is available to current service members, retired veterans, and active first responders, including firefighters, law enforcement officers, EMTs, paramedics, and 911 dispatchers. The program is intended to support both those currently serving and those who have previously served, recognizing the critical role they play in keeping communities safe.
Five Star Cooperative also understands that service extends beyond the individual. That is why the veterans and first responders discount applies to all households where a veteran or first responder resides, helping families and support networks benefit from the savings as well.
“Behind every veteran or first responder is a family that supports them,” the cooperative added. “By extending this discount to their entire household, we are acknowledging that service impacts more than just the individual—it affects families, friends, and communities.”
