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.
