North Fort Myers, FL, December 3, 2024 – In celebration of #GivingTuesday, LCEC invites members to join the global movement of generosity by participating in the LCEC Power to Share by Rounding Up Program. Created in 2012, #GivingTuesday inspires individuals to make a positive impact in their communities by donating time, money or using their voices to promote kindness and generosity.
How LCEC Supports the Movement
LCEC upholds the cooperative guiding principle of "Concern for Community" by volunteering with and sponsoring local organizations year-round. These efforts are further strengthened through the LCEC Power to Share by Rounding Up Program, creating opportunities for employees and members to support neighbors in need.
The LCEC Power to Share Program, a partnership between LCEC and the United Way, was created in 2009 to provide emergency assistance for members experiencing temporary financial difficulties. In 2021, the partnership expanded with the Power to Share by Rounding Up Program, allowing members to round up their monthly electric bill to the nearest dollar.
How to Contribute
- Round Up Your Bill: Round up your monthly electric bill to the nearest dollar. The maximum yearly contribution is $12.
- Set a Monthly Contribution: Add a recurring donation of your chosen dollar amount.
- One-Time Donation: Make a one-time contribution without enrolling.
