ORONOCO, MN - People’s Energy Cooperative’s Operation Round Up® Trust Board met on January 17 and donated $2033 to the Minnesota Children’s Museum of Rochester. The funds granted will be used to help support classroom programing.
The Operation Round Up® fund at People’s Energy Cooperative (PEC) started in 2002 and raises approximately $72,000 a year to support a variety of charitable, educational, community and youth-related programs and events. The program is funded by donations made by members of PEC who voluntarily have their electric bill rounded up to the next dollar. About 11,600 members currently participate with the average of $6.00 a year per member. It truly shows that small change can make a difference.
The applications for funding are considered on a quarterly basis. The funds are held separately from the PEC operating accounts and are administered through the Board of Trustees comprised of seven PEC member volunteers.
To be considered for the next round of disbursements, applications must be made no later than March 20, 2013. Program guidelines and applications for Operation Round Up® donations are available at www.peoplesrec.com or by calling People’s Energy Cooperative at (507)367-7000.
