Youth Tour

Every year, electrical cooperatives, like VEC, sponsor students to spend a week in our nation’s capital learning about our great country, understanding how electric cooperatives make an impact, developing their leadership skills, and making lifelong friendships.

Community Development Program

Each year that VEC determines funding is available, we award grants to eligible government and non-profit organizations for economic development. These grants support capital projects for the community and economic growth that are of significant value to VEC members and the public.
