The Drumheller Co-op Till Tape Program continues to support local non-profit organizations and last week presented $8,392 to the groups that support the community.
For the last 15 years, the Co-op Till Tape Program has presented local groups with a simple and unique fundraising initiative. All groups have to do is register with the Co-op and then collect Co-op till tapes from members. Add up the totals, less the GST and submit them to the Co-op.
Twice a year (in January and in August) the Drumheller Co-op pays out a portion to the community groups.
Since 2000, the program has paid out more than $338,180. In turn, the funds stay in the community through local projects by non-profits groups.
This year the highest payments went to the Dalum Fire Association, Drumheller Youth Bowling, Morrin School and Verdant Valley and Dorcas Woman’s Institute.
Those interested in the program can contact the Co-op’s administration office or call at 403-823-5555 to learn more.
