Operation Round Up®
Give a little. Help a lot. Neighbors helping neighbors with spare change.
Beginning January 2009 Navarro County Electric Cooperative members will
automatically be included in Operation Round-Up®, however if a member does not
wish to participate they just need to call the co-op at 1-903-874-7411, email us at
msdept@navarroec.com or go »»»here to opt out. A member may choose to
discontinue their contribution at any time. The co-op will remove members at their
request, but will not be able to refund contributions made up to that time.
What is most rewarding about the concept of Operation Round-Up® is that it is an
extension of the concept of neighbor helping neighbor that built our electric
cooperative. Operation Round- Up® helps co-op consumers reach out to worthy
causes in their communities and work together to help others.

One of the main characteristics of the Cooperative family is our relationship with the
communities that we serve. We have a responsibility to the members in our service
area that goes beyond just providing reliable electric power.
That is why we are so pleased to share with you the details of an exciting community
service program called Operation Round-Up®.
Simply stated, Operation Round-Up® gathers voluntary contributions from
participating co-op consumers by “rounding up” their monthly bills to the next dollar.
For example, a consumer’s monthly bill of $32.73 would be automatically rounded up
to $33.00, with the additional 27 cents going to the Operation Round-Up fund -
resulting in an average donation of roughly six dollars ($6.00) per year, which will
be distributed to worthy Cooperative service area charitable causes.
