Members can donate to local charities through REC by rounding up their electric bill.

SCHOLARSHIPS

REC helps local high school seniors, trade school, and college students achieve their educational goals through community program scholarships.

Each year, students from REC’s service territory travel to Washington, D.C., to explore key issues in the electric industry and meet their members of Congress.
