Heard us refer to ourselves as a “cooperative” but not really sure how that’s different from any other utility company?

Here’s just a few things that differentiate cooperatives:
➡ Owned by those we serve (member-owned)
➡ Driven by providing reliable, cost-effective service (with any margins being reinvested back to into the company or being paid out as capital credits to members)
➡Exists solely for the local community it operates in

With the winter weather and the holidays coming, there’s no better time to switch to autopay or online payments!

Why make the switch? Mail can take several days to travel through distribution centers, and delays happen, especially around holidays and weather. Online payments skip all of that.

See online payment options on our website (link on FB bio) by clicking “Pay My Bill” or by downloading our app on the Google Play/Apple App Store.

Your donations are at work in the community!

One of the latest Community Fund grants went to Operation Hand Up Food Pantry, which operates out of Lighthouse Fellowship Church in Gosport. The pantry, which serves roughly 100 families every week, used the grant to replace two old refrigerators with a large cooler.

When members round up to the nearest whole dollar on their electric bills (Operation Round Up), the accumulated funds are donated to nonprofits in our service territory through Community Fund grants.

Learn more about participating in Operation Round Up OR how an organization can apply to receive a Community Fund grant at www.udwiremc.com/my-services/member-programs/community-fund/
