GEC Community Foundation, Inc.

The GEC Community Foundation, Inc. is an independent, non-profit, charitable organization that awards grants for educational, social, and other charitable purposes.

The Foundation is operated totally on a volunteer basis. It is governed by an eight member Board of Trustees. Grants are awarded on a quarterly basis to schools, non-profit 501 (C)(3) organizations and other eligible entities. The Foundation is primarily funded through the Operation Round Up Program. This program allows Grundy Electric members and customers of the Public Water Supply District #1 of Grundy County to voluntarily “round up” their utility bill to the next even dollar. The PSWD funds are disbursed solely to projects located in Grundy County. For an average of $6.00 per year participating patrons assist in funding local community projects.

The Foundation assists qualifying recipients with grant monies in the areas of education, health and rural development. The funds are available within Grundy Electric Cooperative’s 12 county service area which includes: Harrison, Mercer and Grundy counties and portions of Linn, Livingston, Daviess, Gentry, Putnam and Sullivan counties in Missouri and Ringgold, Wayne and Decatur counties in Iowa.
