Discover how, as a nonprofit, LCEC uniquely grows organically through their public service territory as prescribed by the Florida Public Service Commission, and abstaining from donations because of their nonprofit type (Designated as a 501(c)12 which falls under Benevolent life insurance associations, irrigation companies, telephone companies, etc., which have a mutually beneficial nature). Donations to this organization are not tax deductible. The episode delves into the equitable allocation process, detailing how revenues exceeding expenses are distributed annually to members.
