Moscow Food Co-op Launches Giving Program




Moscow Food Co-op shoppers can now donate to local non-profit groups when making other purchases at the cash register. Through the Co-op's new Impulse Giving Program, shoppers may donate any amount to non-profit organizations participating in the program.




At the checkout counter, customers can choose the organization and the amount they would like to give. The cashier will ring up the donation along with the purchase. All donations will be paid out to the organization each month.
