At-Large Scholarship Application

Funding for BEC Scholarships

Beltrami Electric Cooperative funds college scholarships with unclaimed capital credit dollars that, per Minnesota state law for unclaimed property, would otherwise be forfeited to the state.  As a co-op, Beltrami Electric returns excess revenue to members as capital credit. When capital credits are unclaimed, they are deposited into a separate fund for education and are used to offer scholarships for the children of co-op members.

For more information or questions regarding Beltrami Electric Cooperative's scholarship programs, contact Angela Lyseng at (218) 444-3689 or via email alyseng@beltramielectric.com.
