How Operation Round Up Works
What happens when you participate in Operation Round Up? Let's say your monthly bill comes to $77.56. We'll round it up to the nearest dollar, in this case it would be $78.00. The extra 44 cents goes directly to the Tri-County People Fund. The average round-up for each meter is just 50 cents a month - about the cost of one daily paper or a cup of coffee.
Each month, your bill shows an amount listed for Operation Round Up, and your bill will include the extra few cents to show an even dollar amount. In January and February of the following year, your total annual contribution will be listed on your energy bill for tax purposes, since these are tax-deductible contributions.
Nearly 60% of all Tri-County Cooperative members and customers participate in Operation Round Up, which means more help can be given through the Tri-County People Fund.
