Applications for the Nobles Cooperative Electric' Operation Round Up Program are currently being accepted.
Nobles Cooperative Electric members help their neighbors a penny, nickel, dime and quarter at a time through Operation Round Up. Through this voluntary program, approximately 60 percent of the members of Nobles Cooperative Electric have elected to have their electric bills rounded up to the nearest dollar. These Round Up funds go into a trust fund, with the donations administered by the Nobles-Murray Rural Electric Trust Board.
Operation Round Up is designed to provide financial assistance to non-profit organizations in the surrounding communities of Murray, Nobles and adjacent counties. Organizations that serve these communities can request funds for projects involving community service, economic development, education and youth and environment disaster relief.
The deadline for submitting applications is March 1. Call Nobles Cooperative Electric at (507) 372-7331, (507) 836-6107 or 800-776-0517. Its website is www.noblesce.coop.
