Operation Round Up grants awarded

The North Itasca Community Trust Board trustees met in April to distribute Operation Round-Up® funds for community-based projects which help Members in the cooperative’s service territory. Awards are listed below.

A total of $12,000 was distributed to help 40 separate projects for childrens’ programs, community meals,  township repairs and more.  Since the program began in 2004, Operation Round Up has distributed more than $438,000.

Operation Round Up is funded through the generosity of Members who choose to round up their bill to the next dollar each month.  Those cents add up, so that twice each year awards can be made for community initiatives.
