The Co-op Till Tape Program just keeps giving and giving.
Last week at the semi-annual disbursement of funds from the Co-op Till Tape Program, cheques were given to local community groups and organizations.
The Co-op’s Till Tape program is simple. Supporters of local community groups can pass along their till receipts from purchases at the Drumheller Co-op, and in turn, the group submits them to the Drumheller Co-op which then returns a percentage of the total from the tapes to the community group.
David Kosolofski, controller at the Drumheller Co-op tells inSide Drumheller at the September disbursement, $6,443 was returned to 28 community groups.
The program has remained strong over its 16-year history. In this time, Co-op has donated $355,840 to the community. The next disbursement will be at the end of December.
Community organizations interested in enrolling in the program can contact the Drumheller Co-op administration office for more information.
