Serving Lincoln County for more than a century!
Giving help to those in need has never been easier. This week, Inland Power & Light is formally introducing a program called “Operation Round Up” that will provide financial support to individuals and organizations within the 13 counties served by Inland Power. This program allows Inland Power members to voluntarily “round up” their electric bills to the nearest dollar each month.
“Small change that changes lives” is the foundation that Operation Round Up is built upon. This is a program based on generating and collecting charitable funds to improve the quality of life for our community through individual, family and nonprofit organization donations.
Operation Round Up gathers voluntary contributions from Inland Power members enrolled in the program. Their monthly electric bills will be rounded up to the nearest dollar each month for an average of $6 per year and put into a donation fund. If every member of Inland Power participated in Operation Round Up, an estimated $225,000 could be generated annually to help local individuals and charities throughout 13 counties in eastern Washington and northern Idaho.
The program will have a foundation board comprising five Inland Power members who will review applications to determine the most appropriate and best use of any funds generated.
Members who wish to participate in this program simply need to fill out the form enclosed in their August bill, sign up online, email or call Inland Power. Applications are also available online at inlandpower.com for those wishing to apply for local assistance.
Inland Power believes that by working together we can make a difference. We appreciate all of our members for their strong community spirit and generosity.
Inland Power and Light is a nonprofit electric cooperative providing affordable, safe and reliable electricity to over 39,000 member-owners in 13 counties throughout eastern Washington and northern Idaho. Founded in 1937, Inland Power is the largest electric cooperative in Washington.
