CCFs in Cooperative Grocer

The Cooperative Community Fund program recently made the cover of Cooperative Grocer. Ellen Michel, Marketing and Outreach Manager for Bloomingfoods Co-op, wrote an excellent article that is one of the best explanations of how a Cooperative Community Fund works.

In a valuable sidebar, Steve Shoup, Co-op and Community Development Cordinator Outreach Director for Bloomingfoods Co-op, provides excellent guidance on how to set up your very own Cooperative Community Fund. Combined together these two articles are strong tools for setting up a CCF. Come join us!
