Round Up Foundation funds are generated by LPEA consumers rounding up their electric bills to the next higher dollar amount (average of 50 cents/month, $6.00/year).
A local volunteer board reviews applications, determines need and allocates funds on a monthly basis.
No time commitment is required on your part.
Funding helps many non-profit organizations and special community projects in LPEA's service area. Organizations funded include:
| Big Brothers/Big Sisters | Durango Children's Museum | Manna Soup Kitchen |
| Folk West | Bayfield Public Library | TARA Historical Society |
| Humane Society | Space Camp | Ruby Sisson Memorial Library |
| Camp Cascade | Habitat for Humanity | Tri-County Head Start |
| Hospice of Mercy | Boys & Girls Club | Project Merry Christmas |
Your donations are tax deductible and stay right here in our communities.
Since 1996, nearly $700,000 has been donated to non-profit organizations. Individuals have received over $163,000 for one-time emergency needs in La Plata and Archuleta Counties.
