CO-OPS CARE FOR COMMUNITY Happy National Co-op Month! Cobb EMC is a cooperative, and that means we’re part of the community that founded us. We believe in investing in the very neighborhoods we grew from to help make our community a better place to live and work. See our community support in action at cobbemc.com/community
THE COBB EMC FOUNDATION Since 2013, the foundation has given more than $6 million to local nonprofits with outreach programs that reach our five-county service area. The foundation is supported by members who choose to round up their bills to the nearest dollar through Operation Round Up.
