CoBank "Sharing Success" 2022

"Sharing Success" is a charitable matching contribution program provided to CoBank’s participating customers. This year, customers were able to nominate up to four qualifying 501(c)(3) organizations for a maximum matching contribution per CoBank customer of $10,000.

South Texas Electric Cooperative, Inc. (STEC) is a proud participant in the CoBank Sharing Success program, because we feel this program is a great way for us to give back to the communities we serve. STEC donated $2,500 to four organizations as part of the 2022 Sharing Success program and nominated them for matching $2,500 donations from CoBank.

STEC's CoBank "Sharing Success" recipients for 2022 are:

Aurora House Foundation

In addition to being a Christian home for orphans they now also offer many innovative programs that were designed to serve single-mother families and at-risk children. They extend a loving hand to some of the most disadvantaged single-mother families and children in Medina and surrounding counties by providing them shelter, necessities, and the life skills they need to help them be a productive citizen when they are at their greatest point of need.
