🎉 Here at the Co-op, we live our values every day. We strive to embody Co-operative Principle #7, #ConcernForCommunity. We do this every time we shop #TrueLocal, reduce our waste, or share our profits in the form of donations. We take pleasure and pride in our role as investors in the social, environmental and economic well-being of our community.
Our Community Grant program is open to any community school or organization that can demonstrate alignment with our Mission, Vision, and Values.
Check out grant recipients from the past 6 months to find out why we think they’re awesome. It’s a #LoveFest. ♥️

We are thrilled to now include Slocan Integrated Foresty Co-op and Harrop-Proctor Community Co-op in our membership. We look forward to learning more about how the UCCC can support the important work of these two local forestry co-ops, and welcome them warmly into the fold.
