It’s the start of a new month, and that means we have a new Round Up recipient: Food Co-op Initiative (FCI). You may already know that Cooperative Principal #6 is ‘co-ops helping co-ops’ and by supporting FCI, we’re actually helping more food co-ops across the U.S open successfully! FCI is a non-profit dedicated to working with community organizers across the country working to open a brand new food co-op in their own community. Donations like those from our Round Up funds help FCI provide training, educational materials, conferences, and customized technical support — all at no cost to the startups. If you’re interested, you can learn more about FCI at the link in our bio, and we hope next time you’re ringing up at the co-op that you’ll choose to Round Up for FCI!
