Community Donations

We love our community and want us all to thrive. We invest in our local economy, support volunteering through our Working-Member program, and support community organizations through donations and sponsorships.


Round Up

Our co-op believes in supporting non-profit organizations that help our communities thrive. One way we do this is with our Round Up program. As our customers check out, they can round up their orders to the next dollar and their change is donated to a featured organization. Just this year generous Co-op shoppers donated $1,200 to the New England Learning Center for Women in Transition, also know as NELCWIT, in January and February, $989 to Great Falls Community Garden in March and April, and $1027.31 to Just Roots in May and June. Thank you!

November and December’s Round Up Recipient Is The People’s Medicine Project

The People’s Medicine Project is a small grassroots health justice organization. They offer programs and resources that increase access to complementary healthcare and plant medicine. They work in communities across the Nipmuc, Pocumtuc, and Abenaki lands known as Western Massachusetts. They partner with individuals, communities, and organizations that support our goals of health justice, racial justice, and ecological justice work. They provide opportunities for healing practitioners and community volunteers to offer their time and skills to folks in need.
