Operation Round Up
CHELCO does more than provide power to its members; we embrace and give back to our community, and it's not just our employees who give back. Thousands of CHELCO members have opened up their hearts and joined our Operation Round Up program to donate a small amount of change each month to benefit organizations in our service territory.
The program is simple, but its impact is tremendous. Members who participate in Operation Round Up choose to round their monthly electric bill to the next whole dollar amount, and the spare change is distributed to non-profit organizations in our communities. The average contribution for members is around $6 per year, and every penny goes to these worthy organizations.
Foster homes for children, meals for the hungry, and shelter for mothers and children are only a few of the extraordinary things these organizations provide. Many others provide educational and recreational opportunities for people of all ages, such as reading programs, mini-marathons and outdoor education. If you're willing and able, we would love for you to become part of this benevolent program.
