Operation Round Up was a success!

A big thank you to our members who actively ‘round up’ their bills monthly. The Operation Round Up Trust Board recently awarded more than $50,000 to programs making a difference in the community.  Operation Round Up, a charitable program unique to electric co-ops, is designed to provide financial assistance to non-profit or community-based organizations that demonstrate a commitment to enhancing the quality of life in the local area served by Itasca-Mantrap.
