Operation Round Up
Operation Round Up
Operation Round Up is a program in which Verendrye members voluntarily round their monthly electric bills to the nearest dollar. The money is pooled together and grants are made three times a year.
Since 1996 Verendrye members have voluntarily rounded up their monthly electric bills to the nearest dollar to benefit community organizations and people with extraordinary medical expenses.
The program grants more than $65,000 a year and has given more than $1 million since it was started.

Current members are President Amanda Zietz, Minot; Vice President Kristi Howe, Velva; Treasurer Annette Thompson, Surrey; Secretary Sandy Hanretty, Towner and Board Member Laurie Dannewitz, Minot. The board is elected from within Verendrye's Member Advisory
