Thanks to our shoppers the Co-op donates money, gift cards, merch and food. Each year, we set aside a pool of dollars for contributions to those in need in Cook County. Whether it’s snacks for hungry kids, gift cards for local events, or sponsorships to support our venerable local non-profit community, we are committed to helping.
In fiscal year 2024 (July 23- June 24) we were able to donate more than $27K to community efforts. Sincere apologies if we missed anyone!
