The Power of Giving Back

Hendricks Power, CoBank and Operation Round Up Donate to Local Initiatives

Hendricks Power, CoBank, and Operation Round Up recently partnered to support vital local initiatives through generous contributions.

Hendricks Power donated $2,000 to the South Central Community Action Program’s "Beat the Heat" effort in Morgan County, which provides 250 fans to households eligible for the Low Income Energy Assistance Program (EAP). Since EAP does not cover summer utility needs, this program ensures relief for families with infants, toddlers, or older adults. CoBank matched the donation through its Sharing Success Grant Program, bringing the total support to $4,000.

Thanks to members who round up their monthly bills, Hendricks Power’s Operation Round Up also awarded $1,500 to the Little Red Door Cancer Agency for its Rides of Hope program. This service provides free, reliable transportation to cancer patients in Hendricks, Boone, and Morgan counties, ensuring they never miss a lifesaving treatment.

Hendricks Power's Operation Round Up also awarded $2,500 to support the revitalization of the Emerald Palace Playground in Robe-Ann Park, Greencastle, IN. This has been a play space for over two decades. The Emerald Palace will be upgraded to feature new, developmentally appropriate play equipment like crawling tunnels, racing slides, and bouncy ponies, all within a safe, enclosed area. 

These efforts reflect our shared commitment to turning small contributions into meaningful impact. Learn more or enroll in Operation Round Up at Operation Round Up | Hendricks Power.
