Farmington Hills, MI, July 09, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Thornton & Grooms, a local heating, cooling and plumbing company, is giving back to the community through their Hearts & Heroes Award.

Since the onset of this program Thornton & Grooms has donated $1000 each month to a nominated charity, totaling $19,000 to date.
