Concern for Community
We're committed to serve our members and communities.
This year, Grand Valley Power selected Operation Interdependence as our community focused fundraiser. Operation Interdependence provides military care packages and support to active military members overseas and to veterans at home.
O.I.’s mission is to support as many troops serving overseas as possible during their deployment, along with veterans here at home. For many service members their care packages are the only communication from “home”. OI volunteers in centers across the country work with schools, churches, synagogues, civic groups, corporations, and anyone willing to contribute to make our mission possible. Get involved here. OI is Department of Defense approved. OI doesn’t compete with Military Exchanges (PX’s) by sending small amounts of goods.
Please watch for updates on how to support this year in the Colorado Country Life magazine or through our Facebook and Twitter posts. We'll begin collecting supplies in September.
