Operation Round Up is an initiative empowering Mor-Gran-Sou Electric members to make a difference in our communities. Members can round up their monthly utility bills to the next dollar, donating their spare change to the Mor-Gran-Sou Charitable Foundation, Inc.
Our Foundation Board, comprising of Mor-Gran-Sou Electric members themselves, diligently allocates these funds through grants to local non-profit organizations. Every penny raised by members stays within our communities, supporting vital causes and projects.
On average, participating members contribute approximately $6 annually, with the maximum monthly donation capped at just 99 cents. These contributions are tax-deductible, and participating members receive a yearly summary on their billing statements.
All rounded-up funds are channeled directly into the Mor-Gran-Sou Electric Charitable Foundation, Inc., under the oversight of the board of directors. Mor-Gran-Sou Electric personnel manage the program as a dedicated service to the foundation, ensuring transparency and impact in our giving.
The Rural Development Finance Corporation (RDFC) is a North Dakota nonprofit finance and development corporation whose member-owners are all of the North Dakota Rural Electric Cooperatives, nine of the North Dakota Rural Telecommunication Cooperatives and the North Dakota Association of Rural Electric Cooperatives.
Due to funding availability by RDFC, grant opportunities are temporarily suspended for the 2025 year.
