If there is someone you know that has gone above and beyond to help their friends, neighbours or community during the pandemic, Co-op wants to know about it.

It could be anyone from a frontline worker to someone down the street delivering baking to their neighbours.

The company will be giving-out up to 1,250 gift cards, each worth $100, across Western Canada.

Nominations will be accepted until Tuesday May 19th at www.wecare.crs.

“Our community is stronger today because of the contributions people are making throughout this pandemic,” said Jason Keis Marketing & Sales Manager of the Armstrong Regional Cooperative. “We continue our efforts to serve our Co-op members and customers, while also supporting initiatives that benefit our community.”

On behalf of local co-ops, Federated Co-operatives Limited is making a $250,000 donation to provincial food banks in Western Canada.

The Armstrong Regional Co-op is a retail co-operative that has served the Okanagan and Shuswap for more than 98 years.

It operates three gas bars, three commercial cardlocks and delivering bulk fuel throughout the Okanagan and Shuswap, and serves more than 21,0000 members.
