The grant, according to a release from Flint Energies, will be used to fund four $1,250 scholarships for deserving students pursuing their degrees at the Warner Robins campus. The endowment is titled the “Jack Hunnicutt Flint Energies Foundation Scholarship”. The late Jack Hunnicutt was the first chairman of the Flint Energies Foundation and was an advocate for the Operation Round Up program since its inception. In 2001, Flint Energies adopted this way to enable members to raise money for local charities and service organizations - Operation Round Up®. The .electric coopera tive’s members contribute nearly $300,000 annually to the Flint Energies Foundation, which supports worthy causes in the 16 counties it serves. Operation Roundup® is a way for members to add voluntarily to those funds in their own unique way. Participating members allow Flint Energies to “round-up” their bill to the nearest dollar. For example, if a bill is $92.71, a member will pay $93, with all 29 cents going directly to the Flint Energies Foundation. On average, a member will contribute $6 a year, but never more than $ll.BB.
