Flint Energies Foundation awards Peach County Emergency Management $5,000

The Flint Energies Foundation has awarded a $5,000 grant to Peach County Emergency Management to support emergency shelter operations throughout Peach County and surrounding areas.

Represented by Ryan Roberts, Peach County Emergency Management submitted a request for funding to purchase seven portable air conditioning units for use in emergency shelters. The portable units will help improve shelter conditions during emergencies and provide additional comfort and support for residents seeking refuge during severe weather events and other emergency situations.

“This equipment will help ensure shelters are better prepared to serve residents during emergencies and periods of extreme weather,” Roberts noted. “Having portable cooling units available will strengthen emergency response efforts for Peach County and neighboring communities.”

The Flint Energies Foundation provides grants to local non-profits such as this one using money donated by Flint Energies Consumer-members through Operation Round Up®. The electric cooperative’s Members contribute $175,000 annually to the Flint Energies Foundation, which supports worthy causes in the 17 counties it serves. Operation Round Up is a way for participating Members to support multiple charitable organizations by simply allowing Flint Energies to round up their bills to the nearest dollar. Donations to Operation Round Up, which average only about $6 per year per member, are tax deductible. About 40% of Flint’s Membership participates in Operation Round Up, but that percentage continues to decline. If you are a Flint Energies Consumer-member and wish to contribute, you can sign up at www.flintenergies.com/ORU or by calling 1.800.342.3616.

The Flint Energies Foundation, a state-chartered, non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization, disburses all contributions to approved projects; Member contributions are not used for administration costs. Foundation Board members include Chair Joanne Hamlin, Lizella; Vice Chair Eloise Doty, Butler; Secretary Connie McCutchen, Midland; Treasurer John Luppino, Warner Robins; Gina Fink, Fort Valley; Charles Harrison, Grovania; Pat Bartness, Warner Robins; Traci Kemp, Warner Robins; Betty Chase, Oglethorpe; Roger Sinyard, Mauk; and Ian Russell, Fort Valley.
