We are proud of our community.  We want to make a difference in our members' lives and one way we do this is by giving back to support all the great causes that matter to you.

If you are making a difference in our community through a non-profit, charitable organization or community group, we welcome your application to our community support fund.

Please see our Community Investment Strategy below for guidelines on giving.

Communities in Full Colour

Communities in Full Colour is a community-investment commitment that gives back to the places Co-op calls home. We are working to brighten up our communities by donating CO-OP® Imagine Paint to the projects and initiatives that matter most to you. The Communities in Full Colour paint donation program is designed to provide local community organizations with free paint to be used towards local community improvements. The paint donation covers any interior, exterior, primer, stain or specialty coatings required. The program does NOT include applicators, surface preparation or repair products that might be required for a given project. Please click below to apply.

Community Gift Card Fundraising

The Gift Card Fundraising program assists non-profit groups and organizations to raise funds through Co-op gift card sales and help families and children defray the costs of their activities. Please only apply for this option if your group would like to sell gift cards.  Use the Community Support Fund link if you are requesting a gift card(s) donation for your project.

We offer the program September 1, November 1, January 1, March 1 & May 1. One organization will be selected for each period.  Click below to apply.

See below for our gift card fundraising guidelines.  Please review before submitting your application.
