About this grant
Mountain Electric members' round-up donations fund one-time grants to charitable groups in the co-op's area for specific projects or equipment, such as gear for volunteer fire departments and rescue squads, youth programs, and food or clothing programs. Grants do not cover regular operating costs, and religious and political organizations are not eligible.
