For over 13 years, YEC has powered the Home’s mission through their Operation Round Up program, employee donations, osted fundraisers supporting the Home, like the Teddy Bear Trot, and donated gift baskets for event auctions and raffles. Additionally, YEC’s Operation Round Up Trust Board granted funds to community partner Piedmont Music Therapy to bring the power of music to the youth at the Home through PMT’s therapeutic music program. Through various community outreach and volunteer projects over the years, the utility company’s employees have also gained a greater understanding of the Home’s work and impact.

As a member-owned, not-for-profit utility employed by local people, supporting the community we all share in impactful ways is a priority. York Electric Cooperative has had a passion and the privilege to partner with the Children’s Attention Home in multiple different ways,” shared Porter Gable, VP of Communications and Outreach. “Not only do our employees champion and identify with the invaluable support the Home provides for our community’s most vulnerable youth, but our members also recognize the important work the Home is doing, which is exemplified by yearly donations through our Operation Round Up program.”

The Children’s Attention Home is incredibly grateful for York Electric’s generosity and ongoing support of the Home’s mission. Their support is powerful and makes a difference in helping youth at the Home receive the care and resources they need to thrive. Thank you, York Electric, for empowering brighter futures!
