Operation Round-Up
Operation Round-Up is a program that allows Nishnabotna Valley REC consumer-owners to make a difference in their own communities. Operation Round-Up allows you to "round-up" your monthly electric bills and donate the difference to a charitable fund to be used in Nishnabotna Valley REC's service territory. The minimum amount you contribute each month is $0.01, and the maximum is $0.99.
How does Operation Round-Up work?
If you choose to participate, your electric bill will be rounded-up to the next highest dollar each month. For example, if your electric bill is $52.71, an additional balance of 29 cents will be added, making your bill and even $53.00.
How will the funds be used?
Donations will be made from the fund to non-profit organizations and individuals in need and also for family emergency disasters. The program has been successfully implemented in more than 200 electric co-ops across the nation.
