One good deed deserves another… and another.
Broad River Electric Cooperative employees have been donating a portion of their monthly wages to the United Way of the Piedmont for decades and the cooperative annually matches those dollars. Thanks to one of its cooperative partners, an additional $1,593.00 have been added to this year’s gift.
CoBank’s “Sharing Success” program matches contributions by their cooperative customers to nonprofit organizations.
“We are so pleased that Broad River Electric is taking part in this year’s Sharing Success program,” stated Tom Halverson, President & CEO of CoBank. “Their generosity and commitment to community are commendable and we are delighted to join them in support of such worthy causes.”
