** FREE MONEY **
Yes – we give money away. To those who need it most.
Operation Round Up has to be one of the best parts of my job. The program gives money away to people in our area. It goes to cancer patients, premature babies, the family whose house burned down – all the people we write checks to along with a handwritten note saying, “wish it could be more.”
I’m proud to say: It can be more.
Here’s how it works – Dakota Valley Electric members voluntarily round up their electric bills to the nearest whole dollar. That money, $20,000 a year!, goes into an account. A nine-member board meets twice a year to allocate funds to those who apply.
For members like you and me, the donation is small, + or – 50 cents/month. But for those in need, that money (up to $2,500) makes a huge difference.
I’m so proud to be a a part of it and hope you are too. Nominate yourself or someone you know. Bonus! Charitable organizations can apply too. Next deadline is October, 2014.
