Operation Round Up Presents Grants to Two Local Agencies

Posted on

The Baldwin County Electric Membership Charitable Foundation recently presented grants to two local agencies. Those agencies include the following:

  • Raphael’s Legacy for Restoration, an organization dedicated to creating homes for displaced veterans and older adults in north Baldwin County.
  • Youth Reach Gulf Coast, which is a long-term, residential program designed to turn around the lives of at-risk young men aged 18 to 22.

Since 2004, Baldwin EMC’s Operation Round Up program has collected money for charitable causes by rounding up participating members’ electric bills to the next highest dollar amount. The extra change is then used to fund grants. To date, the program has distributed more than $7 million in grants to local agencies and individuals in need. Grants must meet one of six qualifying categories: food, clothing, shelter, health, environment, and education.
