Co-Op Media Release:
\nMay 5, 2020 <\/p>\n
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Swan Valley Co-op has been on the front lines delivering the essentials needed by our Co-op members, customers and communities.
\n<\/br>
\nNow, we want to help say thank you to somebody making your life a little easier or a little brighter. Tell us about someone you know that has gone above and beyond to help their friends, neighbours or community during the pandemic and they could receive a $100 Co-op Gift Card. This could be anyone from a frontline worker to someone down the street delivering baking to their neighbours.<\/p>\n
Co-op will be giving out up to 1,250 gift cards across Western Canada. Nominations will be accepted May 5 to 19 at www.wecare.crs.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur community is stronger today because of the contributions people are making throughout this pandemic,\u201d said Colin Peters, General Manager of Swan Valley Co-op. \u201cWe continue our efforts to serve our Co-op members and customers, while also supporting initiatives that benefit our community throughout this challenge.\u201d<\/p>\n
On behalf of local co-ops like ours, Federated Co-operatives Limited is making a $250,000 donation to provincial food banks in Western Canada. This donation is over and above the 35,000+ pounds annually Swan Valley Co-op contributes to Swan Valley Food Bank as well as the Good Buy to Hunger Program and support to school breakfast programs. Our Co-op has also provided additional support to our community, including our recent donation of toys, crafts and games to the H.E.L.P Network in Swan River; an organization that works with vulnerable families and individuals.<\/p>\n
