The Drumheller Co-op showed its support for the community at the semi annual disbursement of the till tape program.
Last week, the Drumheller Co-op gave $11,255 to 31 groups in the valley.
The program, which has been running since 2000, has helped 91 groups. The process is simple. Community groups simply contact the Drumheller Co-op to register, and then they collect Co-op till receipts.
The group then submits the receipts and Co-op distributes a part of the totals back to the community, twice a year.
Over the history of the program it has given $257,492 back to the community.
At this installment of payments, St. Anthony’s School was the top fundraiser, receiving over $1,100. Heart To Heart received about $800 and The East Coulee Community Association brought in over $600.
At the August installment of the Co-op Till Tape Program, $11,255 was distributed to 31 community groups and organizations.
