Operation Round Up

Savage%20Manor.jpeg

 

Operation Round Up is a charitable program funded by the members of Lower Yellowstone Rural Electric Cooperative who voluntarily "round up" their monthly bills to the next dollar.  Non-profit and community organizations in the general service area of Lower Yellowstone Electric are eligible to apply for Operation Round Up funds. 

A member participating in Operation Round Up with an electric bill of $38.63 would actually pay $39.  The extra 37 cents is placed into the Operation Round Up fund.  On average a member donates 50 cents a month, or $6 a year.  The most any member would donate is 99 cents a month, or $11.88 a year.  With hundreds or electric cooperatives members participating, the pennies add up quickly.  Members may also choose to contribute additional amounts each month.
