Hendricks Power Members are the Heart of Our Cooperative 

At Hendricks Power, our commitment goes beyond delivering reliable electricity—it’s rooted in our love for the community. Guided by the Seven Cooperative Principles, we support youth programs, charitable initiatives, local economic development, and community causes that strengthen the places we call home. Valentine’s Day is a perfect reminder of the care and dedication we show our members all year long.

Youth Programs - Hendricks Power annually awards six scholarships to deserving high school seniors, increasing the award amount to $2,000 this year. In addition, local students may be sponsored to attend Youth Tour in Washington, D.C., or Camp Kilowatt summer retreat, which both offer educational and leadership opportunities.

Community Service Days - Hendricks Power hosts an annual Community Service Day to bring employees together and support the communities we serve. In 2025, nearly 40 employees volunteered—our largest Co-op Community Day yet—partnering with Strides to Success, Hendricks County Senior Services, and Sheltering Wings on projects like gardening, cleaning, painting, concrete work, landscaping, furniture assembly, and more. While this day is meaningful, our commitment to the community continues year-round.

Community Sponsorships - In 2025, Hendricks Power proudly supported numerous local organizations, including the Kiwanis Club of Brownsburg, Imagination Library of Hendricks County, South Central Community Action Program, Little Red Door Cancer Agency, Cascade Fire Cadets, Strides to Success, and the B&O Trail Association.

Community Outreach - HPC awarded two teachers the Empowering Students Award, created to recognize and give back to the professionals who are developing our youth. HPC also supported Misty Eyes Animal Center by collecting donations to care for animals in need during the holiday season.

Legislative Breakfasts - Hendricks Power is proud to co-sponsor Legislative Breakfasts that offer residents an opportunity to hear what's happening during session at the statehouse and ask questions to local elected officials.

Annual Meeting & Elections - Being a member-owned cooperative means that the most critical decisions are made by our Board of Directors, who are members just like you. The annual election allows members to vote in a democratic process to elect board members who best reflect their own interests. Save the date for our 2026 Annual Meeting, July 23, 11am-7pm.

Informational Demonstrations - Hendricks Power hosts community safety and electric vehicle demonstrations for events, schools, and other non-profit organizations. This year, the co-op hosted multiple field trips for students to learn about electrical safety. We also presented safety programs at local schools, the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy, and many other organizations. Members can also request complimentary demonstrations for their event or organization.

Energy Audits - HPC offers complimentary energy audits from our Building Performance Institute-Certified Energy Advisor to assist members with energy efficiency. These audits provide members with personalized recommendations and strategies to help save electricity.
