Tipmont community grants provide more than $20,000 to local nonprofits

Powered by the generosity of members like you, Tipmont grant programs continue to improve life in the communities we call home.

In July 2024, Tipmont distributed more than $20,000 in grants from its Operation Round Up and EnviroWatts programs. These grants funded musical performance initiatives, first-responder upgrades, food pantry shelving and more in the communities we serve.

Operation Round Up 

A little change goes a long way when you round up your monthly Tipmont electric bill to the nearest dollar. Your tax-deductible average annual contribution of $6 benefits such area nonprofit efforts as:

  • Musical instruments and accessories for The Arts Federation’s ArtReach program, an instrument lending library that provides qualified band and orchestra students with an instrument of need at no cost for seven years or until they graduate high school.
  • Upgrades to an ambulance cot for the Clarks Hill-Lauramie Volunteer Fire Department for eventual use with an upgraded system to safely and securely load patients into the ambulance.
  • Updated shelving at Crawfordsville’s Grace and Mercy Food Pantry, to allow for more efficient storage and distribution of the food received.
  • Tools for the William Henry Harrison High School Boiler Robotics Team for robot construction and maintenance during upcoming years and seasons.

EnviroWatts 

Tipmont also supports local projects in sustainability, renewable energy, and environmental improvement through the EnviroWatts program. As a participant, you add just one cent per kilowatt-hour to your monthly Tipmont electric bill — with a $5 monthly maximum.

  • The EnviroWatts program donated toward scholarships to support students enrolled in the energy technology program at Ivy Tech Community College.
