EMPOWERING FUTURES:
Education initiatives that are transforming communities
Cobb EMC is committed to educating young minds and illuminating pathways to success. By investing in education, we aim to create opportunities for all students in our service area to succeed and thrive. This is part of what makes us a cooperative, and more than your electric provider.
Cobb EMC Youth Leadership Program: This program gives current high school juniors the opportunity to develop leadership and networking skills, learn about their electric cooperative and earn scholarships.
Mini-Grants for Teachers: Every year, Cobb EMC sponsors mini-grants for teachers in our service area to help fund special projects for their students. Teachers can apply for mini-grants up to $500 to go towards their projects. In 2026, over $35,000 will be awarded to 75 projects within our five-county area.
Partners in Education: Cobb EMC is a Partner at Large serving 150 schools in our service area. Our participation includes co-sponsoring a variety of programs, activities and special events throughout the school year, together with Gas South. These include Cobb and Cherokee County Science Olympiad & Engineering Fairs, STEM essay contests, and more.
Literacy Week: Designed to spark students’ passion for reading and writing, this annual program has connected authors with more than 45 schools and impacted more than 245,000 students since its inception in 2010, thanks in part to Cobb EMC’s and Gas South’s sponsorships.
Scholarships: In support of furthering education, Cobb EMC currently offers scholarship opportunities for our young student members. As of January 2025, over $1 million has been awarded in scholarships to students.

POWERING OUR FUTURE WORKFORCE FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
A yearly tuneup is one of several steps that our members can take to increase the efficiency of their heating and cooling system. Cobb EMC’s HVAC Tuneup rebate program encourages our members to schedule annual pre-season checkups with a qualified contractor to check that HVAC systems are operating efficiently. Request a $50 rebate starting March 1, available while supplies last. cobbemc.com/Tuneup
