Community Connection Fund

Every month, members can round up their electric bills to the nearest dollar. The additional cents are contributed to the Midwest Electric Community Connection Fund. A board of trustees reviews grant applications every three months and allocates funds to charities and individuals in west-central Ohio.

Since its inception in October 1998, the fund has donated over $50,000 each year to local causes, including food pantries, library projects, senior citizen groups, fire departments, and more.

Deadlines

The Community Connection Fund Board of Trustees has nine members. They meet on the second Tuesday of January, April, July, and October at 7:00 p.m. There is no set disbursement time, but it’s typically two weeks after the meeting.

There are four annual disbursements.  If the application is received after the deadline, it will be held and reviewed at the next quarterly meeting.  Below are the deadlines for each quarter.
