Operation Round Up

Part of Scenic Rivers Energy Cooperative's vision is to "...strive to identify ways to improve the quality of life for our community."  With this vision as our guiding light, the Board of Directors decided to join other Wisconsin Cooperatives with a program designed to support local community concerns.

Operation Round-Up gathers contributions from participating co-op consumers by “rounding up” their monthly bills to the next dollar - resulting in an average donation of roughly six dollars ($6.00) per year, which is distributed to individuals and organizations. For example, a consumer’s monthly bill of $52.73 would be automatically rounded up to $53.00, with the additional 27 cents going to the Operation Round-Up fund.

Typically, the funding is used to address CRUCIAL needs such as food, clothing, shelter, medical care and education, but is not limited to these. To apply for these funds, interested applicants need to request an application form, complete it and return it to the Cooperative.

Our current policy provides that ALL members are automatically enrolled in Operation Round-Up unless you notify us through e-mail, mail, or phone call that you do NOT wish to have your bills rounded up.
