In the spirit of serving our members and our communities, MEC offers Operation RoundUp®. Operation RoundUp® is a national program that's been serving rural communities for over three decades. Since its inception, the program has been adopted by 260 electric cooperatives and has generated $50,000,000 in charitable donations. Each month, your electric bill can be voluntarily "rounded up" to the nearest whole dollar amount, with the extra change going into a separate Operation RoundUp® fund to be donated to organizations throughout MEC's service area.
Learn more about the program and how you can sign up by visiting our Operation RoundUp page.

Midstate Electric Cooperative belongs to a statewide association called ORECA (Oregon Rural Electric Cooperative Association). Its role, on behalf of Oregon cooperatives, is to lobby lawmakers and state officials for legislation that supports our mission against mandates that jeopardize cooperative values. MEC will be actively involved working with other Oregon electric cooperatives through ORECA to remind lawmakers about the importance of affordable and reliable electricity. We can’t do this alone.
