Carteret-Craven employees have a long history of involvement in the communities where they live.  They serve as leaders in their churches and civic clubs.  They provide direction and leadership to the youth as scout leaders and sports coaches and the are involved on a daily basis with the education of their children.

Our employees and friends have raised more than $70,000 over the past year for three charities—Relay For Life, March of Dimes and the Harold Anderson, Jr. Memorial Fund.

The Relay For Life team was the top local fund-raiser last year, bringing in more than $32,000 of the $248,000 raised countywide for the American Cancer Society.

The March of Dimes team raised more than $4,800 this year to help fight birth defects, and the memorial fund brought in more than $30,000 to fund projects to honor CCEC Lineman Harold Anderson, Jr. who died in 2003 while restoring power during Hurricane Isabel. Since 2003, employees have given back nearly $200,000 to communities the cooperative serves.

People interested in playing in or in sponsoring next year's tournament may contact the Cooperative through Gary Zajac at 252-727-2231, Richard Tuttle at 252-727-2267 or Bill Ward at 252-727-2251 or e-mail at: billw@ccemc.com.
