Cherryland Donates $11,500
Sept. 22, 2017
Cherryland Cares awarded $11,500 this week to five northwest Michigan area non-profit organizations. Receiving grants were Acme Christian Thrift Store, Boots for Kids, Habitat for Humanity – Benzie County, Leelanau County Cancer Foundation, and National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) – Grand Traverse.
The Cherryland Cares board is made up of five volunteer Cherryland Electric Cooperative members who decide where the money derived from Cherryland Cares Round Up will be handed out to non-profits. Cherryland Cares Round Up money comes from Cherryland members who choose to round up their bills to the nearest dollar.
Cherryland Electric Cooperative is a not-for-profit, member-owned electric utility serving 35,000 members in the Grand Traverse region.
