"Small change that changes lives" is the foundation on which the Operation Round Up® program was built. Members who agree to participate allow Union Power Cooperative to “round up” their monthly electric bill to the next highest dollar. For example, a bill of $95.75 would be rounded up to $96.00, with the additional $0.25 going to the Operation Round Up® fund.

All Operation Round Up® funds are held in trust and distributed through the Union Power Charitable Foundation (UPCF) and stay right here in our local communities. Guidelines for awarding this money address needs such as social/community services, medical/police/fire and rescue, education and youth, child and family services, and transportation services.
