Rounding Up Makes Cents for the Community

Operation Round Up is Walton EMC’s community assistance program.

The concept is to extend the principle on which electric cooperatives were built over 85 years ago — neighbor helping neighbor — and as a cooperative to follow one of our core principles, which is commitment to community.

The program is a simple and rewarding way for our customer-owners to raise money for local charities, needy individuals and service organizations. The average contribution is $6 a year – a small amount to help worthy causes in our communities.
