Roundup for Safety

Flathead Electric Co-op members participate in our Roundup for Safety program which rounds up your bill to the nearest dollar with the extra money going into a fund for community life safety projects. You'll see this noted on your bill each month. While it may only equate to a few cents per month for each participating member, the overall impact on our community is significant. Since the program's inception, over $3.5 million dollars have been awarded to fund over 1,000 safety projects for non-profit organizations in our service area. For more information about Roundup for Safety, or if you would like to opt out of participating for any reason, call us at 406-751-4483.
