Anza Electric Cooperative & The Community

Anza Electric Cooperative and its partners are teaming up to deliver products that improve the lives of our community members. Please read more on how we are doing this.

Get Charged Program

Anza Electric Cooperative, a Touchstone Energy cooperative, and Discovery Channel School are pleased to provide the students of our area with an exciting way to learn about electricity!

Discovery Channel School has partnered with Touchstone Energy cooperatives across the country to create this comprehensive electricity curriculum. The kit is correlated to National Science Education Standards and is designed specifically for 5th to 9th grade students and teachers. It teaches real-world understanding of the power and purpose of electricity and explains the vital role cooperatives played in bringing power to rural America.

This project is made possible because your local electric cooperative is a part of Touchstone Energy Cooperatives, a national branding alliance that helps cooperatives communicate their unique relationships with their consumers, educate employees, build relationships with their member-owners and raise awareness about cooperatives in general.

Each of the local schools were each given a Get Charged! kit. If you’re a member of any homeschooling group and are interested in borrowing a kit, please contact Anza Electric Cooperative, Inc. at 951-763-4333 or aec@anzaelectric.org. We’ll be glad to set something up.

This educational initiative is just one more way your cooperative demonstrates its commitment to the communities it serves.
