Nobles Cooperative Electric’s Operation Round Up – Distributes $14,085 into Local Communities

Worthington, MN – The generosity of Nobles Cooperative Electric member-owners continues to have an amazing effect on local communities. Even more astounding is the fact that tiny donations, an average of only 50 cents a month, are making these huge impacts. That’s over $354,000 since the program began!

Member-owners who participate in Operation Round Up allow the cooperative to round up their monthly electric bill to the next dollar. This small change is pooled into large amounts that a volunteer trust board oversees. Every penny goes to those in need.

Following are the latest round of donations in the local area:

• Lake Sarah Quilters: $400.00 – To help in the purchase of materials to make quilts for individuals in need of comfort.

• Sillerud Quilters and Friends:

$400.00 – Funds will be used to purchase materials and another sewing machine.

• City of Fulda/Fulda Senior Center: $750.00 – For the purchase of a commercial dish washer sanitizer. Theirs is no longer working. Senior Dining provides meals to Fulda and Slayton.
