What is Operation Round Up?
For generations, electric cooperatives have played an important role in supporting the communities they serve. At our cooperative, we continue that tradition through programs designed to strengthen and uplift local families and one of the most impactful efforts is Operation Round Up.
Operation Round Up is built on a simple idea with big results. Members who choose to participate allow their monthly electric bill to be rounded up to the nearest dollar. Each small contribution, often just a few cents, is combined with those of fellow members, creating a meaningful fund used to support charitable and community-focused projects throughout our service area.
The concept began at Palmetto Electric Cooperative in Hilton Head, South Carolina, where leaders recognized a creative way to make a real difference through collective generosity. Since then, the program has grown nationwide, and we’re honored to carry on that tradition here at home.
Operation Round Up thrives because of the compassion of our members. Their willingness to give just a little each month allows us to help local individuals and organizations facing challenges, making our community stronger and more connected.
