October is Co-op Month


from the red shirts blog....

Every October, cooperatives from every corner of America celebrate the accomplishments and contributions of our nation's cooperatives. 

The theme for Co-op Month this year is "Stronger Together - Go co-op!" presents a striking idea - working together whether it be with other co-ops or with our consumer-owners, cooperatives of all types are a formidable force in the marketplace.
 

The annual celebrations play a key role in promoting cooperatives to our members, the public and to policy makers. Through a combination of media outreach, member education and interation with decision makers, co-op month events help raise the visibility of your cooperative and improve public understanding of cooperatives.
