Who Inspires You? Who Powers You?

North Carolina’s electric cooperatives do more than just deliver electricity. We also believe it’s important to recognize the people who power our lives. That’s why, in partnership with Touchstone Energy Cooperatives, we’re running the #WhoPowersYou contest — an opportunity to honor inspirational people in our communities. Who has made a positive difference in your life? The person you nominate could win up to $5,000!
