Through Operation Round-Up, participating cooperative members round up their monthly electric bill to the next whole dollar. Several Central Electric employees also contribute to the fund through payroll. Member and employee contributions are pooled together to support local causes through the grant program.
Since the fund was established in 2015, nearly $200,000 in grants have been awarded across eight counties.
These are pictures from recently completed projects that received support from Operation Round-Up.

Thanks to our members for making these grants possible. Your participation in Operation Round-Up has a lasting impact in local communities.
