Your part in a powerful purpose

As children, we’re often asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” The question can lead to several responses, but the ones we hear often are jobs where we can make a difference. We start at a young age considering ways to make an impact, and we move into adulthood hoping our careers and our lives can leave our communities better than we found them.

Electric co-ops were built from this same desire and need to effect change. From the very beginning, we sought to improve the lives of those around us, even when others believed it was fruitless. The cooperative business model ensures that we are driven by that sense of community purpose, and it focuses on:

> Being local and community-driven, because we were built by the communities we serve.

> The idea that every member counts and our peers in our community should represent our interests.

> The importance of serving people over profits and returning excess revenue back to our members.

> The concept that member satisfaction is the greatest measure of success.

> Innovation and improving quality of life by creating programs and services that support economic development in our community.

Our mission is centered on making a positive impact in our community. You can achieve that mission, no matter your job title.

If you ever wonder if you are making a difference in our community, know the answer is a resounding YES! We each have a role to play, and you are part of a powerful purpose – one that working at an electric co-op can provide.
