Give a little. Help a lot. Neighbors helping neighbors with spare change.

One of the main characteristics of the Cooperative family is our relationship with the communities that we serve. We have a responsibility to the members in our service area that goes beyond just providing reliable electric power. That is why we are so pleased to share with you the details of an exciting community service program called Operation Round-Up®.

Simply stated, Operation Round-Up® gathers voluntary contributions from participating co-op consumers by “rounding up” their monthly bills to the next dollar. For example, a consumer’s monthly bill of $32.73 would be automatically rounded up to $33.00, with the additional 27 cents going to the Operation Round-Up fund - resulting in an average donation of roughly six dollars ($6.00) per year, which will be distributed to worthy Cooperative service area charitable causes.

Beginning in January 2009 Navarro County Electric Cooperative members are automatically included in Operation Round-Up®, however if a member does not wish to participate they just need to call the co-op at 1-903-874-7411, email us at msdept@navarroec.com or go here to opt out. A member may choose to discontinue their contribution at any time. The co-op will remove members at their request, but will not be able to refund contributions made up to that time.

What is most rewarding about the concept of Operation Round-Up® is that it is an extension of the concept of neighbor helping neighbor that built our electric cooperative. Operation Round- Up® helps co-op consumers reach out to worthy causes in their communities and work together to help others.
