Since 1940, Yampa Valley Electric has met the electrineedscal of its member-owners. YVEA’s principal goal has always been to provide quality service to our members. Providing electric service has meant not only dependable, low cost electricity, but also innovative programs designed to aid our members and communities.
Operation Round Up (ORU) is a program adopted by over 250 coops around our nation. Monthly electric bills of participating members are automatically rounded up to the nearest dollar, for an average donation of $6.00 per year. Those pennies are put into a fund from which donations are made to 501(c)(3) organizations.
Operation Round Up has a separate Board of Directors from that of Yampa Valley Electric. The current Operation Round Up Board includes Chairman, Mr. Tom Fox, Ms. Betse Grassby, Ms. Judy Jones, Ms. Darcy Owens-Trask and Ms. Christina Oxley. Tammi Strickland is the Board Secretary/Treasurer. This Board of Directors is responsible for allocating the funds raised through our member participation.
Funding from Operation Round Up is for non-profit organizations that show as 501(c)(3) organizations within YVEA's service territory.
If you have any questions or want to "Round Up" your bill, please contact YVEA at (970) 879-1160, or email OperationRoundUp@yvea.com
Operation Round Up is an example of just how far a little generosity and cooperation can go towards improving a person’s life.
