Community Caring Board Makes Four Awards
Cherryland Electric Cooperative’s Community Caring Board made four awards at its August meeting.
The Caring Board approved $3,500 to help provide scholarship assistance for families to use the Grand Traverse Bay YMCA Daycare Center.
The Child Bereavement Network received $1,000 to help its program, which provides assistance to youngsters who have recently suffered the loss of a loved one.
The Caring Board also gave assistance to two individuals toward bills, one for $700 and another for $326.
The Community Caring Board takes money from Operation Roundup and gives 100 percent of the funds to needy individuals and organizations in northern Michigan.
Cherryland members “opt in” to Operation Roundup and then round up their bills each month to the nearest dollar. That money is then distributed by the Community Caring Board on a monthly basis.
To join Operation Roundup and help those in need, call Brenda at Cherryland Electric at 486-9266.
